WEST LIBERTY, W.Va. – The West Liberty University football team faces a major challenge this afternoon when the Black and Gold welcome No. 8-ranked Notre Dame (Ohio) to West Family Stadium.
    Saturday's contest has been designated as the "Coach Bob Roe Memorial Game" in honor of the late Hilltopper coaching legend with a special 2 p.m. kickoff. Many of Coach Roe's former players will be on hand to participate in the tribute to the man who had such a huge impact on their lives.
    A charter member of the West Liberty Hall of Fame, Bob Roe compiled a 50-24-6 record in nine seasons (1965-73) on the hilltop, highlighted by back-to-back undefeated regular seasons and runs to the NAIA national semifinals in 1970 and 1971.
    This year's Hilltoppers (1-1, 1-0) are coming off a 24-0 shutout win at Alderson Broaddus. The WLU defense held AB to just 229 yards of total offense while racking up 13 tackles-for-loss and 7 QB sacks. It was West Liberty's first shutout since a 9-0 blanking of West Virginia State on Sept. 21, 2013.
    Notre Dame (2-0, 1-0) rolls into town off a deceptively-narrow 31-15 win at Wheeling last week. The three-time defending MEC champion Falcons forced six turnovers and raced out to a 24-0 lead before calling off the dogs and coasting to their 24^th victory in the last 25 MEC games.
