NEC Football Review: Robert Morris, Stony Brook Remain Unbeaten In NEC; Monmouth, Albany Prevail 10/14/2006
Robert Morris (5-2, 3-0 NEC) and Stony Brook (3-4, 3-0 NEC) continued their winning ways on Saturday and remain undefeated in conference play. The Colonials needed two overtime periods to hold off No. 19 ranked Central Connecticut State (5-2, 1-2 NEC), 23-17, at Joe Walton Stadium to win their fifth straight. After a potential game-winning field goal by CCSU was missed wide right in the first overtime, RMU held the Blue Devils offense in the second overtime and then quarterback Erik Cwalinski threw a 14-yard TD to wideout Mario Hines to win the game. In the loss, CCSU runner Justise Hairston ran for 256 yards and two scores. After scoring only 22 points in its first four games, the Seawolves have netted 30 or more points in each of their last three NEC games after toppling Saint Francis (PA), 30-20, at Loretto. The SBU offense was led the quarterback Josh Dudash, who threw for 314 yards on 22-of-27 passing and two touchdowns. Monmouth (6-1, 2-1 NEC) won its second straight, knocking off Wagner (4-3, 0-3 NEC), 28-7, on Staten Island. Freshman tailback David Sinisi rushed for 107 yards and a touchdown for the Hawks, while quarterback Brian Boland converted two passing scores. Albany (4-3, 2-1 NEC) prevailed, edging Sacred Heart (2-5, 1-2 NEC), 24-13, at Fairfield. Great Danes running back Marcus Allen was superb, gaining 149 on just 15 carries and two touchdowns, including a 65-yarder in the third quarter. Next Week's Schedule - Oct. 14 |
