Week Three Game Summaries

Ursinus 41, Franklin & Marshall 7
LANCASTER, Pa. -- Ursinus' Brian DeGiosio and Shearrod Duncan both rushed for over 100 yards as the Bears defeated host Franklin and Marshall College 41-7 on Saturday.

On the ground, the Bears were magnificent as DeGiosio ran for 113 yards, while Duncan gained 107 yards on 15 carries for 7.1 yards per carry.
But the victory was bittersweet for Ursinus as quarterback Frank Vecchio is most likely gone for the year following a hard hit by sophomore Bill Panfile and junior Steve Linebaugh. Preliminary diagnosis has Vecchio missing the remainder of the year with a torn ACL.

In his stead, second-stringer Chris Rahill was superb, completing 17 of 25 attempts for 205 yards and three touchdowns with strikes to Rashard Williams, Joe Mauro and Byron Coleman.

On the ground, Duncan rushed for two touchdowns while Rahill scampered for a score, as the Bears used early and late scoring strikes in the third and fourth quarters to outdistance the Diplomats (0-2).

For the Bears (2-0), offense came easily as the outrushed F&M 239 to 57 and outpassed the Diplomats 230 to 86, for a combined 526 yards.  F&M was led on the ground by James Cleary who rushed for 35 yards on 6 carries.
At quarterback, Matt McCall completed 3 of 15 passes for 54 yards before being relieved by Mark Rowand in the fourth quarter.

It was the Diplomats' defense, not its offense, which scored today.  With 3:27 to play in the game, Chris Rahill was hit and fumbled the ball at the 50 yard line. Pete Mohoric recovered the fumble and rambled 50 yards for the Diplomats' only score, and the longest play of the game.

Another highlight for F&M was punter Andy Gilburg moving into second place all-time at the college for punting yardage. Gilburg, who entered the game needing 124 yards to surpass Jon Bushey's mark of 6867 career yards, punted six times for 195 yards.  He now has 6,938 career punting yards.

On defense, F&M was solid harassing the Bears quarterbacks with four sacks and 15 tackles for loss.  Safety Matt Lintal and linebacker Mohoric were stars for the Diplomats as they recorded 10 tackles and two sacks, respectively.

Greenville 28, Westminster (Mo.) 0
The Greenville College Panthers opened their 2000 home schedule with a 28-0 win against Westminster (Mo.). The defense set the tone early and often, holding the Bluejays' offense to 14 rushing yards and 124 yards total offense. Westminster (0-3) has not scored in three games this season.

The Greenville defense, which had five sacks, a fumble recovery and a defensive stand inside the 3-yard line, was the deciding factor in the games outcome.

The usually high-powered GC offense was grounded early but the defense held strong all game. When the Panthers (2-0) did get going it was quarterback Kyle Krober who did the majority of the damage. Krober, who finished the game with a well-below-average 176 yards passing, found Darryl Deshields for a 21 yard touchdown pass to get GC on the board. On Greenville's next possession Juanell Goodwin faked a sweep rose up and hit Elliot Turner for a 37 yard touchdown strike, putting the Panthers up 14-0 at the half.

The second half was again all defense, forcing the Bluejays to punt on six out of the first seven series. Krober capped a 6-play, 28-yard drive with a sneak to put the Panthers up 21-0.

Greenville sealed the game after a punt that pinned them back deep in their territory, putting together a 15-play, 69-yard drive that lasted over six minutes, capped off by a 4-yard pass from Krober to tight end Sam Graves.

Illinois College 13, Lawrence 6
JACKSONVILLE, Ill. – Illinois College forced a pair of late turnovers and held on for a 13-6 Midwest Conference victory Saturday afternoon against Lawrence.

The Blueboys’ Mike Watson preserved the win when he picked off a Steve Wesley pass in the end zone with 22 seconds remaining.  With 4:03 left, Illinois College’s Glenn Weatherford recovered a Viking fumble inside the Blueboy 1-yard line. Weatherford stopped another Lawrence drive when he intercepted a Wesley pass at the IC 5-yard line with 4:39 left in the third quarter.

Illinois College (2-0, 1-0 MWC) broke a 6-6 tie at the 12:11 mark of the third stanza when halfback Patrick Bowman raced 37 yards for what proved to be the decisive score.  Bowman finished with 158 yards on 20 carries.

Lawrence got out to a 6-0 lead in the second quarter when halfback Jacques Hacquebord scored on a 13-yard run.  Hacquebord rushed for 101 yards on 23 carries while the Vikings’ Justin Berrens lead all rushers with 174 yards on 23 attempts.

The Blueboys tied the contest at 6-6 when quarterback Derek Leonard hit Dustin Devening on a 56-yard scoring pass at the 9:20 mark of the second quarter.

Lawrence dominated the contest offensively and on the game clock.  The Vikings outgained the Blueboys by a 387 to 276 margin and registered 28 first downs to just 12 for the hosts.  The visitors also enjoyed a whopping 43:47 to 16:13 margin in time of possession.

Leonard connected on six of 16 passes for 78 yards while Wesley hit 10 of 19 for 96 yards.

Ohio Northern 49, Muskingum 0
ADA, Ohio -- Jamal Robertson ran for 156 yards and three scores and Ohio
Northern rolled up 545 yards of total offense as the Polar Bears shut out Muskingum 49-0 in the Ohio Athletic Conference football opener for both schools.

Ohio Northern (1-1 overall, 1-0 OAC) scored on four of its first six possessions of the game to lead 28-0 at intermission. The Polar Bears did not punt in the game.

The Muskies were able to muster only 192 yards of total offense and fell to 1-1, 0-1.

After fumbling on its play, the Polar Bears scored in their next two possessions to take a 14-0 lead with 2:07 to go in the opening period. Shane Franzer threw TD passes to Troy Welsch (2 yards) and Tony Mitchell (17 yards) on those drives. Franzer finished the day 18-of-32 for 181 yards and three scores and ran the ball 10 times for 65 yards for ONU.

Franzer found Jarue Mark on a 19-yard TD pass with 10:03 to play before halftime to make it 21-0 and Robertson scored his first touchdown of the day on a 1-yard run with 3:17 left to give the Bears a 28-0 lead at intermission.

Robertson scored on runs of 8 and 11 yards in the third period to give ONU a 42-0 advantage.

ONU head coach Tom Kaczkowski pulled his starters after the third period.

"Our defense wanted to make a statement after last year's game with Muskingum and last week's game with Dayton," Kaczkowski said. "We have a veteran offense and were playing against a young Muskingum defense and we were able to take advantage of some things. Last week was a tough loss, but the conference schedule is what will take us to the playoffs."

Dan Stewart scored on a 28-yard run with 13:12 remaining to cap the scoring. Stewart finished the day with 72 yards on eight carries. Matt Colvin led the Muskies with 70 yards rushing on 17 carries. Jeff Morris completed 7-of-15 passes for 53 yards.

Chicago 30, Rose-Hulman 7

Chicago (2-0) dominated the game, gaining 446 yards to Rose-Hulman's 129. The Maroons also held a time of possession edge of 40:43 to 19:17.

After a 26-yard field goal by Roman Natoli in the first quarter, Chicago built a 10-0 lead when Dunn hit Cushing from 4 yards out with 9:44 left to play in the second stanza. Chicago then went ahead 13-0 on a 34-yard field goal by Natoli just 1:41 later.

Springfield 47, Kings Point 12
KINGS POINT, N.Y. -- Springfield gained 531 yards of total offense on the way to beating Kings Point by a 47-12.

Springfield jumped ahead to a 14-0 lead in the second quarter before Kings
Point could get on the board. The Mariners got their first score at 5:50 of the second quarter when Tori Fredericks went over the top of the line for a 1-yard rushing touchdown. The PAT attempt was missed and Kings Point trailed 14-6.

Springfield responded with a touchdown with under a minute in the half, to

The Blue and Gray added their second score of the day at 14:13 in the fourth when junior Jay DeBruhl scored on a 12-yard run, cutting the lead to 33-14. The Pride were not done yet though and scored twice more in the fourth quarter.

The Pride outgained the Mariners 531-312 behind the strong running of Jay

Pacific Lutheran 42, Simon Fraser 28
PUYALLUP, Wash. -- Senior quarterback Chad Johnson threw for 379 yards and three touchdowns and freshman halfback Aaron Binger had 245 all-purpose yards and two touchdowns to lead defending national champion Pacific Lutheran past visiting Simon Fraser 42-28 on Saturday afternoon at Sparks Stadium.

With the win, the Lutes improve to 2-0. Simon Fraser, which loses to PLU for the 18th time in as many games, falls to 1-1 for the season.

Johnson, the grandson of Pacific Lutheran head coach Frosty Westering, completed 23 of 37 passes for a career-best 379 yards, though he was intercepted twice. The left-hander's touchdown passes covered 50 and 56 yards to sophomore wide receiver Kyle Brown and 4 yards to Chad Johnson.

Binger had his second outstanding game in his young PLU career, carrying the ball 14 times for 111 yards and a scoring run of 15 yards and catching nine passes for 134 yards and the one touchdown.

Pacific Lutheran took the opening kickoff 75 yards on nine plays, culminated by Ian Hanly's 1-yard blast up the middle. But in a trend that continued throughout the first half, Simon Fraser responded to the PLU touchdown with one of their own. In this case, Mike Vilimek closed out a 71-yard, 7-play drive with a 36-yard run. After Johnson and Brown hooked up a 50-yard touchdown just 1:28 into the second quarter, SFU's Marchi Gabriele responded with the first of his two long touchdown runs. Gabriele, a senior halfback, broke through the defense on a 58-yard gallop to paydirt.

With the score knotted at 14-14, Johnson and Brown hooked up on a 56-yard scoring play with 2:25 left in the half, but 22 seconds and 66 yards later, Gabriele raced into the end zone to make the score 21-21 at the half.

At that point, both teams had exhibited racehorse offenses, the Lutes clicking for 322 yards and Simon Fraser responding with 250, including 238 on the ground.

The second half was much different, however, as the PLU defense shut down the Clansmen on all but one drive in the final 30 minutes. In fact, Simon Fraser managed just 49 yards on the ground in the second half. Their one drive came in the fourth period, and only after the Lutes had already scored touchdowns on Johnson's 4-yard pass to Binger and the quarterback's 76-yard scramble and dive into the end zone.

With the score 35-21, the Clansmen drove 83 yards on 10 plays, culminated  by quarterback Steve Powell's 11-yard run with 8:13 left. That's when the Lutes put the game away, going 78 yards on seven plays, with Binger going 15 yards for the score with 4:14 left. Binger gained 67 yards on four carries during the drive.

Pacific Lutheran finished the game with 617 yards of total offense on 73 plays, averaging 8.5 yards per snap. Binger's 111-yard rushing day was his second straight after he had gained 171 in his collegiate debut last Saturday. The Lutes finished with 238 rushing yards of their own.

Simon Fraser's 312 yards of offense came almost exclusively on the ground. Of their 287 rushing yards, Gabriele had 19 on 22 carries.

Freshman Ryshaun Conover led the NJCU receiving group with three receptions for 46 yards. Sophomore backup quarterback Ralph Feliciano came in late and completed the two passes he attempted for 19 yards.
