6 game losing streak 




The Dragons got their lone win of the 2014 campaign on September 20th in Augusta,Ga over Paine college (18-16). After that the Dragons fire breathing was muffled a bit, Losing six straight games :Tuskegee, Stillman, Albany State ,Miles, Kentucky State and Central State 44 to 25.

Malik  Hoskins
2014 Interim Head Coach
1 win  8 Losses  at Lane 

Before you get down on the Dragons understand their 2013 Head coach Derrick Burroughs resigned to become the Defensive Coordinator at Jackson State for the 2014 season. The young Dragons were lead by Interim Head Coach Malik Hoskins who was promoted after six years as an assistant. Hoskins then  resigned at the end of the 2014 season (November) . So, Guess who is at the Helm in Jackson?  Former Head coach  Derrick Burroughs!


Derrick Burroughs
Lane Head Coach 2013 (2-3 SIAC/6-4 Overall)
Back for 2015 Season 

Immediately the Dragons are expected to look different in 2015  under the direction of Burroughs who will be in familiar surroundings with familiar players!

In 2014 the LC running attack was lead by 6'0" 200Lb  junior  running back Gerald Gaines  331 yards in 9 games

Gabriel Mass
6'5"  265lb  Junior
Defensive End
9 games  11.5 Tackles for  loss  8.5 Sacks 
Defensively  Will Lacy Jr  Lead the way with  48 solo tackles and 18 Assisted . He got help from Gabriel Mass who May have had only 39 tackles but made an impact with tackles for loss and sacks! 

Coach Burroughs will bring a team into 2015 that did  not have big numbers in 2014 ,but obviously  with all the players mentioned in this review returning  he will have a veteran team that will most likely better their 1-8 mark and break the current losing streak!
