head coach sean mcdonnell Sean McDonnell, a 1978 University of New Hampshire graduate, completed his 14th season as the head coach of his alma mater in 2012 with a career record of 104-66. Under his mentorship, the Wildcats have qualified for the NCAA Division I FCS postseason for nine straight seasons, the longest streak in the nation, and the ‘Cats have been ranked in the Top 25 for 125 consecutive polls, the second-longest streak in FCS football which dates back to Sept. 13, 2004. The 2012 Wildcats earned a share of the CAA championship, the second in Coach Mac’s career (2005), with a 6-2 league mark and extended their longest-in-the-nation streak of consecutive NCAA D-I playoff appearance to nine. The ‘Cats compiled an 8-4 overall record that included an NCAA second-round game at Wofford. As a result, Coach Mac was tabbed the New England Division I Coach of the Year by the Gridiron Club of Greater Boston for the fourth time (2000, ‘04, ‘09), earned his fourth New England Football Writers Division I FCS Coach of the Year honor (‘05, ‘08, ‘10) and was feted as the AFCA Regional Coach of the Year for the third time (‘04, ‘05). McDonnell reached milestone coaching victory No. 100 with a 44-21 win over Georgia State at the Georgia Dome on Oct. 6, 2012. Senior linebacker Matt Evans became the school’s all-time tackle leader (460) when he surpassed Steve Doig on Nov. 3, 2012, in Coach Mac’s first career victory against William & Mary (28-25). Evans had his No. 52 retired at the team awards banquet, and fellow senior Chris Zarkoskie (OL) was the recipient of the CAA’s inaugural Chuck Boone Leadership Award. The 2011 Wildcats matched a school record for the second straight year by knocking off five ranked opponents en route to an 8-4 mark, including 6-2 in the CAA. The ‘Cats put a bow on their rivalry with Massachusetts by knocking off the Minutemen, 27-21, in the second Colonial Clash at Gillette Stadium, which was also the 74th and final scheduled meeting between the longtime rivals. UNH reclaimed the Brice-Cowell Musket with a 30-27 defeat of Maine in the regular-season finale and came within a blocked PAT of forcing overtime in a playoff loss at Montana State. Junior linebacker Matt Evans became the first Wildcat to ever be named the nation’s top defensive player when he won the Buck Buchanan Award, and senior quarterback Kevin Decker was crowned the CAA Offensive Player of the Year. In 2010, McDonnell’s Wildcats collected victories against five ranked opponents, a University record, en route to an 8-5 campaign. UNH advanced to the quarterfinal round of the NCAA postseason for the sixth time in seven years after dispatching Bethune-Cookman, 45-20, in a second-round encounter before suffering a quarterfinal loss at eventual national championship game participant Delaware, 16-3. McDonnell was feted as the 2010 Division I FCS Coach of the Year by the New England Football Writers, his third such honor (2005, ’08). During the course of the ’10 campaign, the Sean Mcdonnell ‘Cats earned their 12th straight home victory –a school record- by shutting out No. 11 Richmond, 17-0, on Homecoming. Two weeks later, UNH made history by topping Accolades No. 12 UMass, 39-13, in the inaugural Colonial Clash at Gillette Stadium. The game was • Eddie Robinson National Coach of the Year (‘05) witnessed by 32,848 fans, the largest football crowd in CAA history. • Eddie Robinson National Coach of the Year finalist (‘04) UNH finished 10-3 in 2009 and won its second straight CAA North Division • District Coach of the Year, AFCA (‘12, ‘05, ‘04) championship.

The Wildcats played host to two nationally-televised NCAA postseason games on ESPN at Cowell Stadium, beating Colgate in the first round before succumbing to Northern


Iowa in the NCAA quarterfinals. McDonnell’s hard work rebuilding the program paid off in 2004 with a 10-3 overall record and a 6-2 mark in the Atlantic 10, which earned the team the Northern Division championship and a bid to the NCAA I-AA Championships for the first time since 1994. The ‘Cats advanced to the quarterfinals for the first time in the history of the program by winning its first-ever NCAA contest under McDonnell, a 27-23 upset at Georgia Southern. McDonnell was named a finalist for the Eddie Robinson National Coach of the Year and was selected District Coach of the Year by the American Football Coaches Association (AFCA). In 2003, UNH began turning the corner by winning three of its last four contests, including an upset victory over nationally-ranked Maine. The team’s 5-7 record could have easily been above .500, as the ‘Cats narrowly lost to No. 1 Delaware on a missed field goal in the closing seconds, and UNH was driving for a potential game-winning TD late at Division I-A Central Michigan before running out of time. In 2002, McDonnell’s offense was one of the most prolific in I-AA football and averaged 449.2 yards per contest and 36.7 ppg. In victories over the likes of Hampton, James Madison, Dartmouth and Massachusetts the ‘Cats scored 37 points/game and scored over 40 points in two of the victories. UNH finished with a 4-7 overall record in 2001. In 2000, the Wildcats were ranked as high as 23rd in the nation and knocked off three top-25 opponents, including Hampton (31-17), Massachusetts (24-16) and No. 2 Delaware on Nov. 4 (45-44 OT). Injuries squashed UNH’s chances for a playoff berth down the stretch, but UNH opened the campaign with a 4-0 record, its best start since 1977 when the Wildcats won seven straight games. UNH finished the season with a 6-5 record and finished tied for fourth in the Atlantic 10. McDonnell was named the Gridiron Club Of Greater Boston College Head Coach Of The Year. In his rookie season, McDonnell led the Wildcats to a 5-6 overall record and oversaw a wide-open offensive attack that led the Atlantic 10 with an average of 457.3 yards per game. McDonnell was named the 19th head coach of the UNH football program April 22, 1999. McDonnell replaced legendary head coach Bill Bowes, who retired after 27 years as the mentor of the Wildcats. McDonnell served eight seasons as a Wildcat assistant and completed his fifth year as the team’s offensive coordinator in 1998. McDonnell rejoined the Wildcats as an assistant coach before the 1991 spring camp and worked with the quarterbacks and receivers for his first two seasons. In 1997, McDonnell was named the recipient of “The College Assistant Coach Award” by the Gridiron Club of Greater Boston in recognition of his quality of performance, loyalty and longevity. A native of Saratoga Springs, N.Y., McDonnell was a standout defensive back for UNH. He started for the 1975 and 1976 Yankee Conference championship teams and came back to start for the 1978 squad. After his graduation from UNH, he spent one year as an assistant coach at Manchester (N.H.) Memorial High School and followed that up with a three-year stint at Manchester West (1980-82). McDonnell worked as the defensive coordinator at Hamilton College for two seasons (1983-84) and subsequently spent three years (1985-87) coaching the receivers and tight ends at former conference-rival Boston University. During the 1988 campaign, McDonnell served as a graduate assistant coach at Boston College. He spent two seasons as an assistant at Columbia (1989-90) prior to his coaching debut in Durham. Sean and his wife, Jenny, reside in Durham and are the parents of two sons: Timmy and Tommy.

Position-by-position analysis QUARTERBACKS A year ago, the UNH quarterback position was up for grabs as the team sought to replace 2011 CAA Offensive Player of the Year Kevin Decker with unproven signal callers Sean Goldrich (West Haven, Conn.) and Andy Vailas (Bedford, N.H.) among those who competed right through fall camp. In spring 2013 the QB battle is once again wide open between Goldrich and Vailas, only this time the competition is between two proven men under center. Goldrich won the neck-and-neck battle for the starting post in 2012 and promptly won the CAA Rookie of the Week award in week one after completing 21 of 31 passes for 193 yards and two TDs while rushing for 71 yards in the Wildcats’ 38-17 win at Holy Cross. Goldrich, though, was knocked out of commission a week later at Minnesota, which allowed Vailas to step in and take command. After guiding the ‘Cats to a convincing 43-10 triumph versus Central Connecticut State in the home opener, the Phillips Academy product passed for 336 yards and five touchdowns to go along with a 67-yard rushing score in a wild 64-61 loss at No. 5 Old Dominion. Vailas won the CAA Offensive Player of the Week award the very next week when he went 23 of 36 for 315 yards and two TDs in a 34-14 defeat of No. 8 Delaware at Cowell Stadium. Six weeks after suffering his shoulder injury at Minnesota, Goldrich reclaimed the starting role and led UNH to a come-frombehind 28-21 victory at Maine with four touchdown tosses to win his second CAA Rookie of the Week award. Vailas finished the season ranked third in the CAA in passing efficiency (143.0), second in points responsible for/game (14.2), seventh in total offense/game (182.5) and ninth in passing average/game (141.6); Goldrich was ninth in the league in total offense/ game (152.9) and 10th in both passing average/game (133.6) and pass efficiency (124.6). Joining the veteran duo are understudies Adam Riese (Hamilton, N.J.), Hayden Jardine (Tokyo, Japan) and Chris McCormick (Winooski, Vt.), each of whom will take all-important snaps during the spring game. RUNNING BACKS During 2012 spring camp, senior Dontra Peters was coming off his second straight year as the Wildcats’ leading ball-carrier and appeared headed to a third straight year as the incumbent at RB. What a difference a year makes. Peters is off to an NFL tryout in Philadelphia after a successful conversion to cornerback during his senior campaign, a transition made possible by the rapid development of Nico Steriti (Toms River, N.J.) and Chris Setian (East Longmeadow, Mass.). Steriti, a rising junior, rushed for 921 yards and ranked sixth in the CAA in rushing yards/game (76.8) while tallying a teamleading nine rushing touchdowns last season. Setian battered his way to 490 rushing yards and five touchdowns to go along with 22 receptions for 185 yards and four TDS – all top receiving numbers among UNH running backs. The third member of the SOS Express is Jimmy Owens (West Deptford, N.J.), who averaged a backfield-leading 6.8 yards/carry en route to 411 yards on 60 rushes. The dependable running back stable helped the Wildcats rank third in the CAA and 15th nationally in rushing offense (220.8 yards/game). Other RBs to watch in the spring game are redshirt freshman Dalton Crossan (Lake Ronkonkoma, N.Y.) and sophomore Jim Earley (Hopkinton, N.H.). WIDE RECEIVERS The preseason depth chart finds R.J. Harris (Odenton, Md.) and Jimmy Giansante (Jefferson Hills, Pa.) as starting wide receivers for new WR coach Ricky Santos, but both returning starters will be out of action during the spring game as they recover from scheduled offseason surgeries. That opens the door for a number of receivers to see meaningful reps Saturday, led by senior Justin Mello (Dartmouth, Mass.), who snared 21 receptions for 215 yards and a pair of TDs last season, and 2012 Todd Walker Teammate Award winner Tim Farina (Campton, N.H.), who seemed prime for a breakout season before a summer camp injury cost him virtually his entire junior year. Jared Allison (Cliffwood, N.J.), who notched a 67-yard TD reception in last year’s spring game, figures to play a larger role as a slot receiver in his sophomore season after collecting three receptions for 50 yards in the ’12 campaign, but he will be out of action this weekend. Mike Kelly (Merrimack, N.H.), who flashed his big-play ability with five catches for 103 yards and two TDs in the fall Blue-White Game, will join a young corps of talented receivers that includes Kyon Taylor (Springfield, Va.), Mike DeTroia (Barnegat, N.J.), Cam Seymour (Hyannis, Mass.), Anthony Pante (Manalapan, N.J.) and Mark Accino (Hyde Park, Mass.). TIGHT ENDS Harold Spears (Perkasie, Pa.) made the most of his first year as starting tight end by earning a berth on the All-CAA Third Team. The 6-foot-4, 245-pound junior will be seeking to build on a season in which he registered 20 catches (four TDs) for 305 yards. Brian Ciccone (Manchester, Mass.) is in line to serve as backup tight end once again in ’13, and up-and-comers Ekene Nwokoye (Hanover, N.H.) and Jordan Powell (Forked River, N.J.) will be seeking a chance to climb the depth chart as well.


Position-by-position analysis OFFENSIVE LINE New Hampshire’s front line brings back three starters: All-CAA and All-New England left tackle Seamus O’Neill (Manchester, N.H.); third-year starting center and All-CAA Third Team member Mike Coccia (Bethlehem, Pa.) and right tackle Rob Bowman (Cheshire, Conn.). However, injuries are precluding those three from participating in the spring game. Austin Heter (McKees Rocks, Pa.) and George Kallas (Beverly, Mass.) are also sidelined Saturday, leaving the offensive line thin for the Blue-White Game. A host of candidates are in line to replace graduating guards Chris Zarkoskie and Mickey DiLima, starting with senior Sean Ryan (Londonderry, N.H.), who is slotted as the first-string left guard. Converted defensive tackle Tim Johnson (Oakdale, Pa.) is making a strong case for the right guard position. Alex Blane (North Andover, Mass.), Zach Hundertmark (West Windsor, N.J.) and Tad McNeely (Whitehall, Pa.) are candidates looking to gain a foothold in the battle for playing time in the trenches. Other offensive linemen to look for in the spring game include Curtis Nealer (Pitman, N.J.), Jesse Trottier (Derry, N.H.), Alexander Morrill (Lebanon, N.H.), recently converted tight end Andrew Lauderdale (Concord, N.H.) and former defensive tackle Ryan Welch (Dunstable, Mass.). DEFENSIVE LINE Though the Wildcats need to offset the departure of Seattle Seahawks’ draft pick Jared Smith, there is still much depth and experience in the front four. Sean McCann (Avon Lake, Ohio) and Matt Kaplan (Franklin, N.H.) bring five combined years of experience to the tackle position. Kaplan led all UNH linemen with 47 tackles while starting all 12 games a season ago, and McCann chalked up 33 stops. Jullian Turner (East Pittsburgh, Pa.) and Rashid Armand (Brooklyn, N.Y.) acquired valuable experience last season, and each will be leaned upon heavily in ’13. Jimmy Vailas (Bedford, N.H.) and Danny Riley (Danielsville, Pa.) will also see action at tackle this season, though they have been limited this spring. The ‘Cats have the fortune of returning both starting defensive ends in Jay Colbert (Langhorne, Pa.) and Cody Muller (Telford, Pa.). The Keystone State bookends teamed up for 62 tackles and five sacks and proved their durability by playing in all 12 games a year after missing the entire 2011 season. Robbie Zauck (Ocean City, N.J.) is back after amassing 16 tackles, including two sacks, and Dab Ukwuani (Gaithersburg, Md.) is primed for an increased role after playing in three games last season. Cam Shorey (Calais, Maine), who was a tight end during his true freshman season, has transitioned to DE. LINEBACKERS The biggest shakeup comes at linebacker, where the ‘Cats are forced to replace a pair of three-year starters, one of whom just happened to be the school’s all-time tackle leader, Matt Evans. Evans and Alan Buzbee graduate after combining for 195 tackles for the CAA co-champions. Shane McNeely (Whitehall, Pa.) will be expected to step up at one starting MLB position after notching 33 tackles during his sophomore season. Akil Anderson (Morristown, N.J.) is penciled in at the other middle linebacker slot this spring, but competition will be fierce among DeVaughn Chollette (Scranton, Pa.), Ryan Farrell (Westwood, Mass.), Steve Collister (Rochester, N.Y.) and Kevin McNally (Cornwall, N.Y.). Each will get an opportunity to state his case at the Blue-White Game. CORNERBACKS Chris Houston (Harrisburg, Pa.) is poised for his third straight season as a starting cornerback after notching 59 tackles, two interceptions and three pass breakups in ’12. Steven Thames (Fort Washington, Md.), who started four games last season and saw significant action in all 12 games, is in line to take over the starting corner position formerly occupied by graduating Dontra Peters on a full-time basis. However, Thames will miss the spring game, which frees up additional playing time for Lamar Edmonds (Worcester, Mass.), Casey DeAndrade (East Bridgewater, Mass.) and Kalil Bailey (Lancaster, Pa.). SAFETIES With Chris Beranger (Winthrop, Mass.) and Manny Asam (Bloomfield, N.J.) out of action, the Wildcat secondary will be without its two active career leaders in tackles for the spring game. Nick Cefalo (Basking Ridge, N.J.) posted 44 tackles after replacing the injured Beranger as the starting free safety in week 5. Hayden Knudson (Alexandria, Va.) and Tre Williams (Syracuse, N.Y.) will vie for playing time at ‘whip’ safety, with Keith Parkinson (Fort Lauderdale, Fla.) and Tim Pike (Bedford, Mass.) representing experienced reinforcements. Ryan Lynch (Atkinson, N.H.), Dougie Moss (Huntsville, Ala.) and Khyheem Finley (Staten Island, N.Y.) all saw playing time last year, while Daniel Rowe (Orange, N.J.) will miss the scrimmage with an injury. SPECIAL TEAMS All-CAA Third Team kicker Mike MacArthur (North Hampton, N.H.) enters his senior year as the starter for the fourth consecutive year and starting punter for the third year in a row. Brad Prasky (Groton, Mass.), Anthony Guidice (Nashua, N.H.), Christian Breda (Needham, Mass.) and Joe Ghiloni (Warwick, N.Y.) all will see action in the Blue-White Game.

WORCESTER, Mass. – The No. 14/12 UNH football team scored touchdowns on back-to-back drives of 98 yards and 95 yards in the second half to pull away from Holy Cross for a 38-17 Thursday night victory in the season opener for both schools at Fitton Field. The Wildcats (1-0, 0-0 CAA) outscored the Crusaders (0-1, 0-0 Patriot League) 19-7 after halftime and amassed 531 yards of offense (279 rushing, 252 passing) to improve to 11-3 all-time in season-opening games under head coach Sean McDonnell. Sean Goldrich shined in his collegiate debut, completing 21 of 31 passes for 193 yards and two TDs. The redshirt freshman added a team-high 71 rushing yards on 10 carries. Joey Orlando hauled in seven receptions for 102 yards and two touchdowns, while R.J. Harris collected 102 receiving yards and a score on a team-high and career-high-matching 12 catches to go along with a personal-high 57 rushing yards on four carries. Nico Steriti (12 carries-76 yards, TD) and Chris Setian (12 carries-56 yards, TD) both notched rushing scores. Chris Beranger and Matt Evans shared team-high honors with nine tackles apiece. Evans moved into a tie for fourth place on the University’s all-time tackle list with 343 stops (Aaron Thomas, 2000-04). Dontra Peters (five tackles), making his first career start at cornerback, snared one of the team’s two interceptions on the night, with Manny Asam (five tackles) securing the other pick. Jared Smith (two tackles, forced fumble) applied a QB pressure on Peters’ INT and later forced a fumble that was recovered by Jimmy Vailas. UNH claimed a 6-0 lead with eight minutes left in the first quarter on a three-yard touchdown run from Steriti. The sophomore carried four times for 19 yards during the eight-play, 54-yard drive that lasted nearly four minutes. Crusader freshman Mike Galantini blocked the PAT. After holding New Hampshire on a fourth-and-1 from the 26-yard line, Holy Cross compiled a nine-play, 74-yard drive that concluded with quarterback Kevin Watson’s four-yard keeper for a 7-6 lead with 11:59 remaining in the second. UNH recaptured the lead on its next drive when backup quarterback Andy Vailas (4-for-4, 59 yards, TD) entered the game and orchestrated a six-play, 73-yard drive. Running the hurry-up offense, the sophomore went 4-for-4 for 59 yards, capping the drive with a 38-yard scoring strike to Orlando, who found himself wide open on the left sideline when a defender fell. The PAT from Mike MacArthur staked the ‘Cats to a 13-7 lead with 10:04 left in the half.The Wildcat defense forced its first turnover of the season on the ensuing drive when Watson was jarred on a pass attempt by Smith, leading to an errant throw that was intercepted by Peters, who returned to the Holy Cross 41. This time it was Goldrich’s turn to spearhead a nine-play scoring drive. The signal caller completed 2 of 3 passes for 15 yards, including a tipped ball that was corralled by Harris for an eight-yard TD. Setian carried three times for 14 yards on the drive that built UNH’s lead to 19-7 with 3:43 left in second following a failed two-point conversion. The Crusaders scored the final points of the half on the final play of the half courtesy of a 32-yard field goal from John Macomber that sliced New Hampshire’s lead to 19-10. The eight-play, 65-yard drive took only 66 seconds to complete. The second half was all UNH. Pinned to its own 2-yard line, the Wildcats embarked on an eight-play, 98-yard drive that lasted more than three minutes before Jimmy Owens (eight rushes-26 yards, TD) found the end zone on a one-yard carry. Despite the missed PAT, the ‘Cats owned a 25-10 lead with 7:34 left in the third. Goldrich’s 40-yard strike to Orlando was the highlight of the drive. New Hampshire’s next drive began at its own 5. Thirteen plays, 95 yards and five-and-a-half minutes later, Goldrich found Orlando in the far right corner of the end zone for a five-yard strike and a 32-10 lead with 14:10 left in the game. Asam’s interception at the Holy Cross 44 set up the Wildcats’ third TD drive of the second half. Five plays later, Setian carried in from two yards out for a 38-10 advantage.

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. – University of Minnesota quarterback MarQueis Gray passed for two touchdowns and ran for two more to lead the Golden Gophers to a 44-7 victory against the University of New Hampshire in Saturday afternoon’s football matchup at TCF Bank Stadium. UNH -- now 5-5 against Football Bowl Subdivision teams, including 1-1 against the Big Ten – fell to 1-1 overall in the 2012 season. Minnesota improved to 2-0. UNH’s offense was led by sophomore quarterback Andy Vailas, who was forced into action when redshirt freshman Sean Goldrich was injured on the Wildcats’ second offensive play. Vailas was 18-for-34 for 158 yards, all of which marked career highs; he also threw one interception and was sacked four times. R.J. Harris was his top target with six catches for 61 yards. Jimmy Giansante followed with three receptions for 55 yards. Nico Steriti was the top ground gainer with six carries for 34 yards and Chris Setian accounted for UNH’s touchdown with a five-yard scamper late in the first quarter. The Wildcats’ defensive effort was spearheaded by Matt Evans and Alan Buzbee with nine tackles apiece; Evans finished with a personal-best two sacks. Cody Muller recorded a career-high seven tackles, including a sack, and also forced a fumble that was recovered by teammate Chris Beranger. Minnesota outgained UNH, 412-231, with a 240-68 edge in rushing yards. Gray finished 6 of 8 for 100 passing yards and had 17 carries for 109 yards. Donnell Kirkwood also had 17 rushes for a total of 70 yards and a touchdown. The Golden Gophers quickly built a 9-0 lead in the first quarter with a safety and touchdown spanning 18 seconds. With UNH facing 4th-and-6 at its 15-yard line, the long snap went between the hands of punter Mike MacArthur, who retreated to the end zone and threw the ball out of bounds for a Minnesota safety and a 2-0 lead at 10:12. Troy Stoudermire returned the ensuing kickoff 48 yards and a personal foul against the ‘Cats gave the home team 1st-and-10 at the UNH 27. Gray lofted a pass down the left sideline for a 27-yard touchdown completion to Isaac Fruechte, and Jordan Wettstein’s PAT extended the Gophers’ lead to 9-0 at 9:54. The Wildcats responded with an eight-play, 76-yard drive to pull within 9-7 with 34 seconds remaining in the first quarter. Vailas’ 25-yard completion to Giansante and a 16-yard run by Setian quickly advanced the ball to the UM 38. Vailas then connected with Harris for 18 yards and Giansante for eight more to set up 2nd-and-2 from the 13. Steriti carried the ball eight yards to create 1st and goal, and Vailas pitched the ball right to Setian, who won the race to the pylon and MacAruthur’s kick was successful. Minnesota reestablished a nine-point lead, 16-7, just 11 seconds later when Gray opted to keep the ball, broke through a hole in the middle of the line and raced to the end zone for a 75-yard touchdown. Gray orchestrated an eight-play, 67-yard TD drive that consumed 4:04 off the clock and extended the advantage to 23-7 at 6:50. On 3rd & 2 at the UNH 35, Gray found John Rabe down the right seam for a 33-yard gain. One play later, Rabe came out of the backfield in the wishbone formation to catch the ball in the right flat for a two-yard score from Gray. Minnesota’s defense forced a turnover on a strip-sack of Vailas and Gray scored three plays later on an 11-yard keeper up the middle to give the Gophers a 30-7 lead at 4:56. Minnesota consumed more than eight minutes off the clock on a 16-play, 85-yard drive that culminated in a two-yard TD run by Kirkwood that gave the home team a 37-7 lead. Minnesota closed the scoring at 6:40 of the fourth quarter on a 12-play, 86-yard drive capped by a 19-yard pass from Max Shortell to A.J. Barker.

DURHAM, N.H. – Nico Steriti rushed for a team-leading 104 yards, and four other University of New Hampshire running backs scored touchdowns as the 18th-ranked Wildcats knocked off Central Connecticut State, 43-10, in Saturday afternoon’s home opener at Cowell Stadium. UNH, which claimed its eighth consecutive victory in a home opener, upped its record to 2-1 on the season by defeating CCSU (0-3) for the seventh time in seven all-time meetings. Steriti (12 rushes-104 yards) paced a Wildcats’ rushing attack that accumulated 331 yards and averaged 6.4 yards/rush. Jimmy Owens carried 11 times for a careerhigh 91 yards and two touchdowns, and Chris Setian tallied a rushing score as part of his 11-carry, 81-yard effort. It was the most rushing yards by a UNH team since Sept. 16, 2006, when the ‘Cats ran for 417 yards in a win over Stony Brook. The five rushing TDs are the most since Nov. 12, 2011, at Towson. Making his first career start, quarterback Andy Vailas went 14-for-20 for 122 yards and a TD. R.J. Harris pulled down six catches for 67 yards to lead all UNH receivers. New Hampshire had four interceptions and limited the Blue Devils to 234 yards of total offense. Nick Cefalo grabbed the first two interceptions of his career, while Chris Houston and Steven Thames added picks. Matt Evans notched a team-high nine tackles, and Matt Kaplan added four tackles, one sack and two fumble recoveries. The Wildcats built a 6-0 lead with 3:48 left in the opening quarter on a five-yard touchdown run from Vailas. The signal caller concluded an 11-play, 79-yard drive by running off right tackle and breaking a tackle at the goal line. The Blue Devils drew within, 6-3, when Juan Duque booted a 33-yard field goal with 3:43 left in the first to punctuate a 17-play, 53-yard drive that lasted over seven minutes. UNH’s lead increased to 13-3 on a 30-yard TD run from Jared Allison (two rushes-22 yards, TD) with 1:58 left in the opening quarter. Allison, on his first collegiate touch, took an end around to the left side, switched directions when he was hemmed in and dashed around the right corner to the end zone. The ‘Cats bumped their advantage to 20-3 with 11:58 left in the first half when Vailas completed a third-and-one pass to tight end Harold Spears (three catches-14 yards, TD) in the back of the end zone. It was Spears’ first career scoring reception and put a ribbon on a nine-play, 80-yard drive. Mike MacArthur drilled his first field-goal attempt of the season, a 28-yarder on the final play of the half, to give New Hampshire a 23-3 halftime lead. CCSU opened the second half with the ball, but its drive ended on a Cefalo interception, his second of the game. Owens scored six plays later on a 5-yard run at 10:29 of the third to make it 30-3. The teams traded possessions throughout the remainder of the third quarter. Just 38 seconds into the fourth, Setian found a hole off right tackle and raced 30 yards for a TD with 14:22 left in the contest to stake UNH to a 37-3 lead. On the ensuing drive, Thames picked off pass to give the ‘Cats good field position at the CCSU 9-yard line. Owens scored his second TD of the day on a 6-yard run just two plays later to extend it to 43-3. The Blue Devils would conclude scoring as David Rose recovered a UNH fumble and returned it 38 yards with 1:08 left. Andrew Clements completed 10 of 21 passes for 98 yards and three INTs for CCSU. Rob Hollomon led the Devils’ rushing attack with 47 yards on 18 carries.

NORFOLK, Va. – Andy Vailas passed for 336 yards and five touchdowns Saturday afternoon at S.B. Ballard Stadium, but Old Dominion quarterback Taylor Heinicke set an NCAA Division I record by amassing 730 passing yards as the fifth-ranked Monarchs outlasted the No. 18/19 UNH football team, 64-61, in the highest-scoring game in CAA history. The Wildcats, who led by as many as 23 points (47-24) in the second half, dropped to 2-2 on the season and 0-1 in the league despite setting a school record with 35 first downs. ODU upped its overall record to 4-0 by winning its conference opener, and the Monarchs established an FCS record by racking up 824 yards of total offense. Jarod Brown snapped a 61-61 tie by kicking a 25-yard field goal with 41 seconds remaining to cap a record-shattering game that featured an astounding 1,549 yards of total offense –another NCAA FCS record. Heinicke completed 55 of 79 passes for five touchdowns without an interception. The sophomore added 11 rushes for 61 yards and a TD to set an FCS record with 791 yards of total offense. ODU’s top receivers were Nick Mayers, who snared 12 passes for 271 yards and three touchdowns, and Antonio Vaughan, who posted 12 catches for 143 yards and a score. Vailas went 23-for-38 and was not picked off until his final pass of the game, a desperation second-and-11 pass from the ODU 49 intended for Joey Orlando with six seconds left. Vailas added 14 carries for 80 yards and a rushing TD to finish with 416 yards of total offense. Nico Steriti led all ball-carriers with 21 rushes for a career-high 201 yards and two TDs, and R.J. Harris collected eight receptions for a career-high 191 yards and a pair of touchdowns. The Wildcats made an instant impact on the opening kickoff when Lamar Edmonds drilled ODU kickreturner Colby Goodwyn, forcing a fumble that was recovered by Akil Anderson at the Monarchs’ 25. One play later, Vailas found Orlando (seven catches-81 yards, two TDs) on a post-pattern scoring toss and a 7-0 lead just 16 seconds into the game. Steriti (career-high 226 all-purpose yards) accounted for all 76 yards of a four-play drive capped by his one-yard touchdown run with 9:06 remaining in the first for a 13-3 lead. The two-point attempt failed. The sophomore running back carried once for 12 yards before breaking free on his next attempt for a 63-yard gain to the 1-yard line. On the next play, he carried in for his first of two TDs in the game. The Wildcats parlayed the Monarchs’ second turnover of the game into a touchdown with 10:15 left in the second. Mayers fumbled a punt return that was recovered by Jimmy Vailas at the Monarchs’ 25. Chris Setian (10 rushes-70 yards; three catches-28 yards) rumbled for 12 yards on the first play of the subsequent drive before taking a screen pass from Andy Vailas on the next play 13 yards into the end zone, which staked the ‘Cats to a 23-10 lead. New Hampshire recaptured the momentum when Vailas completed a 73yard touchdown pass to Harris on a third-and-23 play to build the lead to 37-17 with 2:50 left in the half. It was the longest passing play for the Wildcats since a 77-yard hookup between R.J. Toman, who was in attendance, and Chris Jeannot on Nov. 15, 2008, against Massachusetts. Chris Houston led the Wildcats with 14 tackles, while Dontra Peters (13 tackles), Matt Evans (12 tackles) and Alan Buzbee (10 tackles) all finished with double-digit stops. The 61 points scored by UNH represented the most ever in a defeat and the highest totaled by the ‘Cats since a 63-21 win at Rhode Island on Nov. 11, 2006. ODU’s 64 points were the most allowed by New Hampshire since a 64-42 loss to Massachusetts on Nov. 19, 1988.

DURHAM, N.H. – R.J. Harris hauled in a pair of second-half touchdown passes and racked up 129 receiving yards to help the 20th-ranked University of New Hampshire football team post a convincing 34-14 victory against No. 8 and previously unbeaten Delaware at Cowell Stadium on Saturday afternoon. UNH upped its record to 3-2 on the season and 1-1 in the Colonial Athletic Association, while Delaware dipped to 4-1 overall and 1-1 in the CAA. The Wildcats won their eighth consecutive home game and improved to 20-1 in their last 21 games at Mooradian Field. Andy Vailas matched a career best with 23 completions (seven to Harris) on 36 attempts for 315 yards and two TDs. The sophomore signal caller added 14 carries for 36 yards and a score. Joey Orlando added six catches for 74 yards as UNH amassed 409 of its 472 yards of total offense in the second half. The Wildcats’ defense held the Blue Hens to 234 yards and a mere 92 yards in the second half. Manny Asam spearheaded the attack and tied a career high by notching 11 tackles (eight solo) and a personal-best 1.5 sacks. Dontra Peters tallied two interceptions and three tackles, including a half sack, Matt Evans chipped in with nine tackles, and Robbie Zauck collected two of UNH’s six sacks of Delaware quarterback Trent Hurley (18-for-27, 140 yards, TD, INT). Trailing 7-0 at halftime, the Wildcats scored touchdowns on their first three possessions of the second half to open a 21-7 lead with 14:50 left in the game. UNH tied the game, 7-7, when Harris snared his first TD catch of the contest on a 32-yard pass to conclude an eight-play, 72-yard drive at 11:02 of the third quarter. On third-and-12, Vailas stepped up in the pocket and fired a strike down the left sideline that Harris caught in stride on his way to the end zone. The ‘Cats took the lead for good, 14-7, when Vailas capped a seven-play, 77-yard drive with a one-yard TD rush with 5:08 left in the third. The signal caller took the shotgun snap, faked a handoff to Chris Setian (three carries-13 yards/three catches-18 yards) and walked in untouched for the score. Vailas and Harris would connect for the second time early in the fourth for a seven-yard reception and a 21-7 Wildcats’ advantage. On third-and-goal, Vailas scrambled to his left to elude pressure and zipped a scoring pass to the open Harris just inside the goal line to wrap up a 12-play, 67-yard drive that lasted more than four minutes. Mike MacArthur improved to 5-for-5 in field goal kicking on the season by successfully hitting from 23 yards out with 8:16 left for a 24-7 lead and a 28-yarder that staked New Hampshire to a 27-7 lead with 4:54 to go. The Wildcats capped a 34-0 run when Jimmy Owens (team-leading 72 rushing yards on four carries) took a handoff up the middle, angled left and outraced the Blue Hen secondary for a career-high 60-yard run with 3:52 left. Delaware managed to avoid a second-half shutout on a 26-yard pass from Hurley to Mike Milburn (two catches-32 yards) with 34 seconds left. Andrew Pierce paced Delaware with 18 rushes for 82 yards. The Blue Hens led 7-0 at halftime thanks to Hurley’s one-yard run with 1:05 left in the first quarter. It marked the first time the Wildcats had been blanked at home in the opening half of a game since Oct. 14, 2000, against Richmond.

ATLANTA – Andy Vailas threw for four touchdowns, Nico Steriti scored three times and UNH head football coach Sean McDonnell earned his 100th career victory as the No. 14/17 Wildcats defeated Georgia State, 44-21, on Saturday at the Georgia Dome. With its second straight win, UNH improves to 4-2 on the season and 2-1 in the CAA. GSU falls to 0-5. McDonnell, in his 14th season, joins his former head coach, Bill Bowes (175 victories in 27 seasons), as the only UNH coaches to ever reach the century mark in career wins. The Wildcats totaled 624 yards on offense while holding the Panthers to 299 yards. UNH accumulated 332 rushing yards, as both Steriti (11 carries-126 yards, two TDs) and Jimmy Owens (15 rushes-120 yards) eclipsed the 100-yard mark. The New Hampshire defense forced five turnovers, with three interceptions and two fumble recoveries. Jared Smith notched a forced fumble and two sacks among his five tackles. Matt Evans (six tackles) and Cody Muller (fumble recovery) also registered sacks. Chris Houston, Hayden Knudson and Alan Buzbee each intercepted a pass. Vailas went 18 of 35 for 252 yards and four TDs. Harold Spears set career highs with six receptions for 94 yards and a TD. Jimmy Giansante tallied four grabs for 65 yards. UNH snapped a 7-7 tie early in the second quarter by parlaying the game’s first turnover into points. Smith blindsided GSU quarterback Ronnie Bell, forcing a fumble that was recovered by Muller at the Panthers’ 21. Steriti then picked up 13 yards on a sweep around the right end before nabbing a Vailas pass on a shallow crossing route from right to left for an eight-yard TD –the first scoring reception of the sophomore’s career and a 14-7 lead. Special teams set up New Hampshire’s next scoring drive. After a Smith sack forced GSU into a fourth-and-19 from its own 16, Knudson deflected Matt Hubbard’s punt, resulting in a 24-yard kick that gave the ‘Cats possession at the Panthers’ 40. Steriti subsequently carried for eight yards, Vailas connected on a 25-yard seam-route pass to Spears and Steriti scored his second touchdown of the game by reversing direction on a left-side rush, slamming on the brakes, cutting to his right and maneuvering his way for a seven-yard TD and a 21-7 advantage with 8:54 left in the second. The lead ballooned to 28-7 just 26 seconds into the second half on a five-yard TD pass from Vailas to Justin Mello. Moments earlier, UNH forced its third turnover of the game when Tre Williams got to Bell on a safety blitz, forcing an errant pass that was intercepted at the GSU 17 by Buzbee, who returned the pick 12 yards. The Wildcats would push the lead to 35-7 when Vailas tossed his fourth TD pass of the day to a fourth different receiver, Chris Setian, who hauled in a screen pass and raced a career-best 25 yards for a TD with 3:17 remaining in the third quarter. Mike MacArthur tacked on a season-high 43-yard field goal with 40 seconds remaining in the third to push the New Hampshire cushion to 38-7. Georgia State received a brief spark on a 26-yard TD pass from Ben McLane to Emmanuel Ogbuehi that cut the deficit to 38-14 at 13:52 of the fourth quarter. But New Hampshire retaliated nine seconds later courtesy of a 63-yard kickoff return by Jared Allison, followed by Steriti’s third TD of the contest, a 34-yard run jaunt for a 44-14 lead. The teams exchanged touchdowns on their initial possessions. First, UNH marched 68 yards on four plays, with a career-long 29-yard rush by R.J. Harris that set the stage for a Vailas-to-Spears 26-yard TD pass. GSU drew even, 7-7, when Bell found Albert Wilson for a 54-yard touchdown pass with 11:01 left in the opening quarter.

Andy Vailas, who completed 15 of 26 passes for 188 yards, threw for three first-half touchdowns, added a 38-yard rushing TD in the third quarter and converted a crucial fourth-down conversion on UNH’s go-ahead drive in the final quarter to lead the Wildcats to their third straight victory. A pair of essential special teams plays helped New Hampshire mount its comeback after Richmond fought back from a 34-17 deficit to grab a 40-34 lead with 10:21 remaining. First, Lamar Edmonds blocked the PAT that followed a 48-yard touchdown run from Kendall Gaskins (16 rushes-97 yards, 3 TDs) that put the visitors in front. Then Mike MacArthur pinned the Spiders back to their 1-yard line with a 51-yard punt at the 7:55 mark. On the subsequent drive, Randi Vines stuffed Gaskins for a one-yard gain on 3rdand-2 at the Richmond 10. That forced a punt that staked UNH to good field position at its 49 with 5:58 left. Sean Goldrich then entered the game for the first time and, on 2nd-and-10, handed off to Chris Setian for a 35-yard pickup down to the Spiders’ 16. Goldrich completed a three-yard pass to Joey Orlando and called his own number for a six-yard gain, setting the stage for a 4th-and-2 play at UR’s 8. Following a timeout, Vailas (12 carries-83 yards, TD) returned to action and converted a QB draw for three yards before Setian (five rushes-44 yards, TD) plowed in for a five-yard TD and a 41-40 lead with 2:57 remaining. On its next drive, Richmond turned the ball over on downs at its 16, and MacArthur provided the game’s final points with a 27-yard field goal with 1:08 left. The Spiders drove to the UNH 34 with two seconds remaining, but Michael Strauss’s Hail Mary pass fell incomplete to preserve the Wildcats’ third straight victory over the Spiders. Matt Evans tallied a season-high 16 tackles -15 solo- to headline UNH’s defensive effort. CAA rushing leader Nico Steriti produced his fourth 100-yard rushing game in five weeks by carrying 15 times for 122 yards. The sophomore notched a 21-yard TD scamper with 13:10 left in the second quarter to stake the ‘Cats to a 20-10 lead. R.J. Harris spearheaded the receiving game with five catches for 94 yards, highlighted by a 14-yard scoring reception in the first quarter and a nine-yard TD catch in the second period. Orlando (four catches-49 yards, TD), who was the recipient of a Vailas 16-yard TD throw with 2:01 left in the first, moved into 10th place in school history in all-time receptions (151) and receiving yards (1,909). The Wildcats took control on the Vailas scoring run with 8:54 left in the third to open their biggest lead.The Spiders retaliated with 23 consecutive points. John Laub (27-for-44, 269 yards, TD) threw a two-yard touchdown strike to Seth Fisher, which trimmed UNH’s lead to 34-24 with 6:22 left in the third. With 59 seconds remaining in the third, Remington Hinshaw booted a 41-yard field goal to make it 34-27. After Laub (team-high 17 rushes-103 yards) departed with an injury, Strauss (5-for-12, 42 yards, TD) threw a four-yard TD pass to Stephen Barnette (seven catches, 73 yards, TD) on his first attempt of the day, as Richmond knotted the score, 34-34, with 11:19 left in the fourth. But the Spiders, who outgained the Wildcats (544 to 454) and had a decided advantage in time of possession (34:47-25:13) remained winless at Cowell Stadium since 2000. UNH recorded its ninth straight home victory and improved to 21-1 in its last 22 contests at “The Dungeon.”

ORONO, Maine- Sean Goldrich threw for 283 yards and four touchdowns to lead the No. 12/14 UNH football team to Saturday afternoon’s come-from-behind 28-21 victory over Maine at Alfond Stadium in the 100th all-time meeting between the CAA rivals. UNH (6-2, 4-1 CAA) registered its fourth straight victory to retain possession of the Brice-Cowell Musket, which goes to the winner of the annual gridiron battle. Goldrich, who was making his first start since suffering an injured shoulder at Minnesota on Sept. 8, went 18 of 39 and rushed eight times for 13 yards with a team-long 12-yard rush. Harold Spears notched three catches, including two for touchdowns, for a career-high 107 yards, and R.J. Harris nabbed a team-high seven catches for 88 yards and a TD. Chris Setian carried a team-leading 17 times for 76 yards, including six straight carries for 24 yards as the Wildcats ran out the clock to preserve their ninth win in the last 10 meetings with Maine (2-5, 1-3). Matt Evans amassed a team-high 11 tackles, and Jared Smith chipped in with nine stops, including 1.5 tackles for loss and three pass breakups. UNH scored 28 unanswered points after falling behind, 14-0, in the first half. Alan Buzbee and Steven Thames each recorded an interception that led to touchdowns. The Black Bears scored the only points of the opening quarter on Justin Perillo’s 15-yard touchdown catch. Perillo (seven catches-68 yards, two TDs) hauled in Marcus Wasilewski’s pass with 5:20 left for a 7-0 lead. Perillo tallied his second TD of the contest with 10:57 left in the second quarter when he took a screen pass from Wasilewski (23-for-44, two INTs, 254 yards, three TDs) in the left flat, broke a tackle and registered a 16-yard score for a 14-0 Black Bears’ lead. The Wildcats got on the scoreboard with 9:09 remaining in the first half when an open Spears caught Goldrich’s pass along the left hash marks and outran the Black Bears defense 79 yards for UNH’s longest play of the season and a 14-6 deficit following the failed PAT. New Hampshire compiled a 12-play, 81-yard drive on its game-tying drive. Harris, who had a potential 33-yard TD reception negated by a holding penalty, found his way to the end zone two plays later on a 22-yard pass from Goldrich. The Wildcats successfully added the two-point conversion on a Goldrich-to-Setian pass to square the score, 14-14, with 57 seconds left in the second. The Wildcats would strike for the go-ahead touchdown just 38 seconds later when Buzbee picked off Wasilewski’s first-down pass and rumbled 46 yards to the Maine 1. After an incompletion and a fumble, the ‘Cats regrouped with Goldrich hitting Setian (three catches-21 yards, TD) for a five-yard TD and a 21-14 lead at halftime. UNH’s second interception of the game set up the only touchdown of the third quarter. Thames collected a tipped ball and dashed 17 yards to the Black Bear 18. Wasilewski’s pass, intended for Arthur Williams, was broken up by Tim Pike (two tackles), leading to Thames’ second INT of the season and a red-zone opportunity that New Hampshire would cash in on Goldrich’s fourth TD pass of the day –and second to Spears- a six-yard hookup with 2:44 left in the third for a 28-14 lead. Maine snapped the 28-point UNH run with 14:22 left in the fourth quarter when Williams (three catches-46 yards, TD) was on the receiving end of a 23-yard slant TD pass from Wasliewski that trimmed the Bears’ deficit to 28-21. New Hampshire’s bid to up its seven-point lead went by the boards when a 39-yard field-goal attempt by Mike MacArthur was blocked by Kendall James with 3:21 remaining.

KINGSTON, R.I. – Dontra Peters forced a fumble and notched an interception that sparked scoring drives, Chris Setian scored both a rushing and receiving touchdown and the 12th-ranked UNH football team spoiled Saturday’s Homecoming game at Rhode Island by posting a 40-20 CAA victory. UNH, which recorded its fifth straight victory, improved to 7-2 overall and maintained at least a share of first place in the CAA with a league mark of 5-1. URI dropped to 0-8, 0-5. Sean Goldrich completed 17 of 27 passes for 245 yards and a touchdown while rushing six times for 24 yards and a TD. R.J. Harris registered his fourth 100-yard receiving game of the season by snaring a team-leading eight catches for 131 yards. Jimmy Giansante collected 55 receiving yards on a career-high-tying four receptions. Setian was UNH’s leading rusher with four carries for 55 yards, while Andy Vailas added 54 yards on eight rushes. Matt Evans totaled 12 tackles, eight of the solo variety, for team-high honors. The senior co-captain, with 427 career stops, moved to within seven tackles of UNH all-time leader Steve Doig (434, 1978-81). New Hampshire’s defense turned three Rhode Island turnovers into 17 points. Mike MacArthur staked UNH to a 3-0 lead by kicking a 28-yard field goal that capped the game’s opening drive with 13:15 remaining in the first quarter. Setian began the game with a career-long 44-yard rush to the URI 28. Two completions from Goldrich to Harris placed the ball on the Rams’ 11. Vailas, who split time at quarterback with Goldrich, ran for an apparent 11-yard TD, but the play was negated by a personal foul penalty and the ‘Cats had to settle for three. Rhody’s initial drive was thwarted when Jared Smith (two tackles) blocked a 29-yard field goal try by Dylan Smith, but the Rams alertly recovered the ensuing fumbled return by Peters at the UNH 16-yard line. Rhode Island capitalized on that turnover to take a 6-3 lead two plays later on a 12-yard touchdown pass from Bob Bentsen (24-for-38, 266 yards, two INT, TD) to Brandon-Johnson Farrell (nine catches-92 yards, TD) with 10:59 left in the first. Bentsen’s two-point conversion pass attempt fell incomplete. The Wildcats came right back with a 10-play, 72-yard drive which culminated in Setian’s two-yard scoring rush with 7:53 remaining in the opening stanza. The failed PAT left UNH’s advantage at 9-6. Peters (five tackles) atoned for his earlier fumble when he intercepted Bentsen’s pass in the UNH end zone to snuff out Rhode Island’s 13-play, 75-yard drive that chewed up nearly seven minutes. The pick was Peters’ fourth of the season, which is tied for the most in the CAA. New Hampshire then covered 80 yards on seven plays, climaxing in an 11-yard rushing touchdown from Nico Steriti (five rushes-19 yards, TD) for 16-6 lead with 14:36 left in the second quarter. Peters caused a second Rhode Island turnover deep in UNH territory to halt the Rams’ following possession when he ripped the ball loose from URI running back Assani Mudimbi on a rushing play. Manny Asam (six tackles) recovered the fumble on the Wildcats’ 21. UNH parlayed that turnover into more points courtesy of MacArthur’s 31-yard field goal with 8:08 left in the half that staked the Wildcats to a 19-6 advantage. New Hampshire seized a commanding 26-6 lead on Goldrich’s nine-yard TD pass to Setian (two catches-25 yards, TD) with seven seconds left in the half. That put a bow on a seven-play, 71-yard scoring drive that took only 44 seconds to materialize. URI scored on its initial possession of the second half when Bentsen scored on a six-yard keeper to trim the deficit to 26-13 at 9:10 of the third. Vailas got into the scoring action with a 19-yard TD pass to Justin Mello (two catches-27 yards, TD) with 7:22 left in the third for a 33-13 lead. Mello made a full-extension grab in the far left corner of the end zone for his second scoring reception of the year. Jared Allison (55 kick-return yards; 103 all-purpose yards) set the stage for the four-play, 52-yard drive by virtue of his 40-yard kickoff return to the UNH 48. The Wildcats took advantage of favorable field position on their next scoring drive, which began when Alan Buzbee (four tackles) picked off Bentsen’s fourth-down pass and brought it back 12 yards to the URI 35. It was Buzbee’s third interception in the last four games. It took all of five plays, 33 yards and 53 seconds to score the fifth TD of the day. Goldrich called his own number for a nine-yard score to push the lead to 40-13 with 2:46 left in the third. The Rams made it 40-20 with 11:05 left on a five-yard keeper by Bentsen.

DURHAM, N.H. – Nico Steriti carried 19 times for 106 yards and two touchdowns and Matt Evans registered a game-high 10 tackles to become the all-time tackle leader in school history as the 11th-ranked UNH football team downed William & Mary, 28-25, at Cowell Stadium on Saturday afternoon. The Wildcats improved to 8-2 overall and upped their CAA-leading mark to 6-1, while the Tribe fell to 2-7, 1-5. With its 10th straight home victory, New Hampshire snapped a nine-game losing skid against William & Mary and gave head coach Sean McDonnell his first career victory against the College. The eighth victory also likely punched New Hampshire’s ticket to the NCAA Football Championship tournament for a nation-leading ninth consecutive season. Sean Goldrich completed 21 of 30 passes for 215 yards, and R.J. Harris notched a team-leading 10 catches for 77 yards. Harris moved into a tie for fifth place in UNH single-season history with 71 receptions and seventh place in single-season history with 961 receiving yards. Evans, who now has 437 career tackles, surpassed Steve Doig as the University’s all-time tackles leader with just under 3:25 remaining in the third quarter and the game tied at 18-18. The senior co-captain combined with Nick Cefalo (six tackles) to wrap up Keith McBride (17 rushes-75 yards) on an eight-yard rush at UNH’s 38. Five plays later, W&M kicker John Carpenter missed wide left on a 46-yard field-goal attempt, preserving the deadlock. William & Mary third-string quarterback Michael Graham, who replaced injured starter Brent Caprio (5 of 5, 47 yards, TD) late in the first half, went 13-for-25 for 167 yards with a touchdown and an interception. Mikal Abdul-Saboor carried 16 times for 87 yards and added four catches for 47 yards to pace the Tribe’s offense. With UNH trailing 7-3, Steriti scored on an 18-yard run with 5:20 remaining in the second quarter to cap a nine-play, 92-yard drive. Andy Vailas (11 rushes-53 yards) connected with Harold Spears (two catches-23 yards) on the two-point conversion to stake UNH to its first lead, 11-7. New Hampshire increased the lead to 18-7 with 16 seconds left in the opening half when Goldrich (seven rushes-37 yards, TD) called his own number for a twoyard score. Carpenter’s 23-yard field goal sliced UNH’s lead to 18-10 with 9:20 left in the third, and Tre McBride (four catches-72 yards, two TDs) hauled in a 19-yard pass for his second touchdown catch of the contest with 4:06 left in the period. He was then on the receiving end of Graham’s two-point conversion pass to knot the score, 18-18. Mike MacArthur broke the tie on a 24-yard field goal with 11:22 left in the fourth quarter to give the Wildcats a 21-18 lead. The Tribe answered with a go-ahead, 13-play, 78-yard drive that concluded with Graham’s one-yard keeper on fourth-and-goal for a 25-21 lead with 6:00 to go. Steriti’s second scoring run, a 19-yard rush, proved to be the game-winning score with 4:14 left to conclude a six-play, 84-yard drive and put the ‘Cats on top, 28-25. One play earlier, Goldrich hit Joey Orlando (eight catches-94 yards) on a 32-yard pass –the longest pass of the game- down the left sideline. Keith Parkinson snuffed out the College’s next drive when he recorded his first career interception on Graham’s second-and-5 pass at the Wildcats’ 22 with 1:52 remaining in the contest. The Tribe’s final drive ended on Graham’s Hail Mary incompletion from midfield as time expired. Caprio’s 30-yard TD pass to Tre McBride allowed William & Mary to take a 7-0 lead at 4:12 of the first quarter. MacArthur got UNH on the board with a 23-yard field goal with 13:45 left in the first to make the score 7-3.

DURHAM, N.H. – Andy Vailas scored a 77-yard touchdown on the first play from scrimmage and accounted for three TDs, but No. 19/16 Towson stormed past the No. 7/7 University of New Hampshire football team, 64-35, in Saturday’s CAA regularseason finale at Cowell Stadium. Terrance West rushed 19 times for 236 yards and two touchdowns for Towson (7-4, 6-2 CAA), which claims a share of the CAA championship with UNH (8-3, 6-2), Richmond (8-3, 6-2) and Villanova (8-3, 6-2). Vailas was the Wildcats’ leading rusher with a career-high 110 yards on eight carries, two of which went for TDs, and the signal caller went 3-for-9 through the air for 33 yards and a TD. Vailas scored on a nine-yard rush late in the first quarter and completed an 18-yard TD strike to Brian Ciccone with just under four minutes remaining in the second quarter. It was Ciccone’s first career TD reception. Steven Thames (four tackles) scored on a 65-yard blocked field-goal return with no time left in the first half to draw the Wildcats within 30-28 at the intermission, but the Tigers outscored the ‘Cats 34-7 in the second half en route to their fourth consecutive victory. Jared Smith (four tackles) blocked the aforementioned field goal and added a blocked PAT. R.J. Harris (two catches-20 yards, TD) scored UNH’s final TD on a 16-yard reception from Sean Goldrich late in the fourth. Goldrich went 9 of 18 for 108 yards with a touchdown and an interception. West, who set a career high with 261 rushing yards in last year’s game against New Hampshire, scored on a four-yard run in the first quarter that staked Towson to a 7-6 lead and added a five-yard scamper early in the fourth that ballooned the Tigers’ advantage to 50-28. Towson quarterback Grant Enders went 20 of 28 for 245 yards and two TDs, and he added 11 carries for 39 yards and two rushing scores. Dominique Booker rushed 13 times for 89 yards and two touchdowns as Towson racked up 415 rushing yards and 660 total yards of offense. The Tigers held the Wildcats to 141 passing yards and forced three turnovers, highlighted by a 26-yard fumble recovery TD from Brian Boateng that capped a 27-point Tigers’ run for a 57-28 bulge with 8:08 left in the contest. Matt Evans tallied a team-leading 12 tackles for New Hampshire, which saw its 10-game home winning streak snapped. The Wildcats surrendered 64 points at Cowell Stadium for the first time since a 64-42 loss to Massachusetts on Nov. 19, 1988.

SPARTANBURG, S.C. – The 11th-ranked UNH football team forced three turnovers, highlighted by a 14-yard TD on a fumble recovery by Cody Muller, but No. 9 Wofford College defeated the Wildcats, 23-7, in Saturday’s NCAA second-round playoff game at Gibbs Stadium. UNH, the co-CAA Champions, lost in the NCAA second round for the second straight season and dropped its third consecutive postseason contest to finish its season with a record of 8-4. Wofford, the co-Southern Conference champions, improved to 9-3. Junior fullback Eric Breitenstein gashed UNH for 247 rushing yards and all three Wofford touchdowns on 22 carries. The Terriers, who only attempted six passes, accumulated 454 rushing yards on 77 carries. Sean Goldrich went 17 of 29 for 113 yards; the redshirt freshman was intercepted twice, lost a fumble and was sacked four times. Manny Asam racked up a game-high 12 tackles and forced a fumble. Playing in his final collegiate game, Matt Evans totaled 11 tackles and also forced a fumble. Hayden Knudson established a career high with 10 tackles and recovered a fumble. Muller added seven stops, five solo, and Jared Smith capped his UNH career with four tackles and a fumble recovery. Senior co-captain Alan Buzbee collected six tackles, including 1.5 for loss, and forced a fumble. R.J. Harris notched 11 receptions for 78 yards; the All-CAA wide receiver ended his campaign with 84 catches (No. 4 in school single-season history) and 1,059 receiving yards (No. 6 in school single-season history). An early gamble paid huge dividends for Wofford when Breitenstein took a fourth-and-one handoff through the middle of the line and scampered 54 yards for a touchdown at 11:51 of the first quarter for a 7-0 lead. Wofford made it 13-0 on Breitenstein’s six-yard TD rush with 1:13 left in the half. Kasey Redfern’s PAT clanked off the left upright, so the Terriers settled for a 13-0 lead. UNH’s defense produced the first Wildcat points of the game. Buzbee forced a Donovan Johnson (14 rushes-45 yards) fumble that was scooped up by Muller and returned 14 yards for a TD that sliced Wofford’s lead to 13-7 at 12:15 of the third quarter. Breitenstein powered the Terriers right back down the field and scored his third touchdown of the contest. After plowing his way for a 46-yard gain to the UNH 26, the Walter Payton Award finalist rumbled 26 yards to the end zone on the very next play to restore Wofford’s 13-point lead, 20-7, with 9:58 left in the third. The lead increased to 23-7 courtesy of Redfern’s 33-yard field goal at 2:57 of the third quarter. The 454 rushing yards were the most surrendered by a UNH team since allowing 430 yards on the ground in a 49-36 victory against Rhode Island on Oct. 27, 2007. It also marked the second straight game an opponent eclipsed 400 yards rushing (Towson, 415, Nov. 17) and was five yards shy of the most rushing yards ever yielded by a New Hampshire team (459, vs Massachusetts, Nov. 13, 1965).
