SALEM, Va. -- Blake Jackson knew that, more than usual, Mary Hardin-Baylors fortunes were going to be in his control with the NCAA Division III title at stake.The dual-threat quarterback embraced it, running for 119 yards and a touchdown and leading the Crusaders to a 10-7 victory over Wisconsin-Oshkosh in the Amos Alonzo Stagg Bowl on Friday night for their first football national championship.I like the pressure. I like the challenge, the senior said. Thank you to the coaches for believing in me.Jackson carried 28 times for the Crusaders (15-0), and completed 16 of 27 passes for 171 yards with an interception. The Crusaders virtually ignored running back Markeith Miller, who arrived with nearly 1,500 yards rushing, but gained just 11 on nine carries.We had trouble running the ball, coach Pete Fredenburg, who started the Crusaders program 19 years ago, said. Blake took up the slack. We felt like he was going to have to be the catalyst for our offense.Jacksons touchdown came on a 1-yard run with 3:16 left in the second quarter, and was the final score of the game.There was a ton of athletes out there tonight on both sides of the ball, Titans coach Pat Cerroni said.

On the drive, Jackson ran around behind the line unchallenged, at times finding receivers downfield and other times running through gaps for yardage. The Crusaders converted their first five third downs on the drive before settling for the field goal.BIG KICKJohn Mowerys 22-yard field goal was the difference, and he seemed like a liability to the Crusaders coming in.Hes made just 8 of 15 field goal tries on the season, with a long of 42, but was true when a 20-play drive stalled at the Titans 5.Mowery later missed a 19-yard try, while Oshkosh, whose kicker Eli Wettstein was 16 for 22 on the season with a long of 50, was left on the sidelines for the Titans final play.
