SAINT CHARLES, Mo. (AP) — Spencer Redd returned the opening kickoff 99 yards for a touchdown, and hauled in a 52-yard touchdown reception and Lindenwood defeated Tennessee Tech 23-0 on Saturday.

Logan Seibert capped Lindenwood's first drive with a 49-yard field goal and added a 23-yarder just before halftime to make it 13-0.

Backup quarterback Carter Davis connected with Redd for the long touchdown late in the third quarter.

Two Tennessee Tech quarterbacks combined to go 12 of 34 for 122 yards passing with an interception. Justin Pegues had 89 yards rushing.
