9th Yr. Head Coach Mike Clark with the Stagg Hat |
WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. – Senior
Blake Bowman (Valley View, Pa./Tri-Valley) rushed 28 times for 168 yards and three touchdowns, including a two-yard scamper midway through the fourth quarter that helped the Lycoming College football team ward off a late rally from Susquehanna University in a 27-24 win in the 20
th addition of the Stagg Hat Trophy rivalry on Saturday afternoon, Sept. 3, at David Person Field.
The Warriors (1-0 overall) took advantage of two River Hawk fumbles in the first half to score two touchdowns, while managing their own miscues, fumbling four times but losing none.
“Coming out and starting 1-0, it reconfirms what we thought about our team,” ninth-year Lycoming head coach Mike Clark said. “There are obviously a lot of things we need to work on – we put the ball on the ground a lot today. Fortunately, we didn’t lose one. We won the turnover battle – plus-three, so that helps. Overall, we’re pleased.”
