Box Score

WESTMINSTER, Md. – Ursinus opened up a 35-0 lead through three quarters en route to a 42-13 Centennial Conference (CC) football victory over McDaniel on Saturday.

Matty Callahan (Germantown, Md./Northwest) threw for 239 yards to lead the Green Terror (1-3, 0-3 CC) on offense, going 19-for-37 in his first significant action at quarterback.

Corey Kelly led the Bears (4-0, 3-0 CC) with 145 of their 260 rushing yards. Taylor Paul added 98 yards on 13 carries. Both rushed for a touchdown.

After a sluggish start offensively by both teams, Ursinus was able to block a punt and take over inside the McDaniel 10 yard-line with 6:43 to play in the first quarter.

Three plays later, Kevin Monahan found Nick Lundholm from eight yards out for a 7-0 lead with 5:54 on the clock.

A 14-play, 75-yard drive that was keyed by a 15-yard pass to Paul on third-and-5 resulted in a 14-0 lead when Kelly found the end zone from seven yards out with 11:34 to play in the second quarter.

A Max DeNardo interception gave Ursinus the ball back nearly four minutes later. Six plays into the ensuing drive, Monahan hit Matt Raymond for a 56-yard touchdown and 21-0 lead.

A 22-yard Matt Glowacki punt return gave Ursinus the ball at the Green Terror 32 for its first possession of the second half. Seven running plays later, Nick Pustizzi ran in the final two yards for a 28-0 led with 10:16 showing.

A Ron Armstead 14-yard touchdown grab made it a 35-0 game with 4:20 to play in the third quarter.

On to punt facing a fourth-and-1 from his own 34, Brett Haas (Laurel, Md./Atholton) eluded a free rusher and ran for two yards and the first down to keep the drive alive on McDaniel's next possession.

A 18-yard pass play to Mike Oliveto (Robesonia, Pa./Conrad Weiser) move the ball to midfield one play later. On the first play of the fourth quarter, Callahan hit Nick O'Melia (Taneytown, Md./Francis Scott Key) for a 46-yard strike that moved the ball to the Ursinus 5.

Two plays later, John Chamberlin (Franklinville, N.J./Williamstown) carried the ball one yard into the end zone for the first collegiate score, drawing the hosts within 35-7 with 13:41 showing.

A Kelly 46-yard keyed a seven-play, 91-yard drive that stretched the lead to 42-7 with 5:08 showing.

Chamberlin added his second touchdown on the ensuing Green Terror possession, again scoring from one yard out to set the final margin as time expired.

Oliveto finished with 84 yards receiving on seven catches while O'Melia added 75 yards on six grabs.

Tyler Krebs (Selinsgrove, Pa./Selinsgrove) and Eddie Kendell (Point Pleasant, N.J./Point Boro) led the defense with seven tackles each.
