The 2013-14 A&M-Commerce athletic season was filled with a handful of incredible moments, achievements and career milestones. Throughout the summer Lion Athletics will take a look back at the top 15 moments of the year, voted on by athletic administrators and local media members. It's well-known that the Lion football team experienced a resurgence under first-year head coach
Colby Carthel in 2013, but in addition to the won-loss record, the Lions also re-wrote its own record books as a team and individually.
Â
In all, 15 records were tied or fell when the dust settled from the 2013 campaign. Those records included
Tevin Moore becoming the program's career leader in sacks,
Deric Davis' five-touchdown game vs McMurry and
Vernon Johnson putting together the most prolific season by a wide receiver in the history of Lion football.
