Sports

October 19th, 2014 by Ric Hanson

CEDAR FALLS, Iowa (AP) —Melvin Taveras intercepted a Brion Carnes pass at his 3-yard line to seal a 31-28 South Dakota State win over Northern Iowa. Kicker Justin Syrovatka made a 44-yard field goal with 1:47 left to play and was perfect on four PATs. His game winning kick helped the Jackrabbits notch their first FCS win at UNI.

SDSU (5-2, 2-1 MVFC) led 28-14 with 8:58 to play after scoring 21 straight points. But UNI (3-4, 1-2) got a 2-yard TD run by David Johnson and minutes later a 58-yard interception return for a score by Ray Mitchell with 3:29 left to tie it 28-28.

Johnson, who ran for 78 yards for UNI, scored on a 50-yard run and Barkley Hill caught a 2-yard TD pass to give the Panthers a 14-7 halftime lead. UNI’s Sawyer Kollmorgen and Brion Carnes were 20-for-35 for 178 yards. But they were intercepted three times.

October 19th, 2014 by Ric Hanson

VALPARAISO, Ind. (AP) — Quarterback Andy Rice scored on a 1-yard run in the fourth quarter and Drew Ormseth later sealed it with an interception return for a touchdown, giving Drake a 17-9 win over Valparaiso Saturday. Drake (4-3, 3-1 Pioneer) erased a 9-0 deficit, pushing ahead 10-9 on Rice’s run, capping a 14-play, 79-yard drive.

Valparaiso (2-5, 0-3) then forced two punts and blocked a field goal, getting the ball back with 2:04 left. Scott Staal was picked off five plays later by Ormseth, who returned it 39 yards for the score. The Crusaders had one more chance with 44 seconds remaining, but Brad Duwe intercepted Staal’s second-down pass to end it.

Rice threw for 265 yards with two interceptions and Michael Hudson had 93 yards on eight receptions. Staal threw for 52 yards in relief of the injured Ben Lehman, who threw an 8-yard touchdown to Ryan Shea for a 6-0 lead.

Maryland rallies past Iowa 38-31 in Big 10 clash

October 19th, 2014 by Ric Hanson

COLLEGE PARK, Md. (AP) — Will Likely returned an interception 45 yards for a fourth-quarter touchdown, and Maryland rallied from an early 14-point deficit to beat Iowa 38-31 Saturday for its first Big Ten home victory. The Terrapins (5-2, 2-1) scored 24 straight points after falling behind by two touchdowns with 8½ minutes elapsed. It was 24-21 before Likely picked off a Jake Rudock pass and sprinted untouched into the end zone with 12:29 left.

Stefon Diggs caught nine passes for 130 yards and a touchdown for Maryland, playing its first season in the Big Ten after leaving the Atlantic Coast Conference. The Terps are now 1-1 at home in league play after losing 52-24 to Ohio State two weeks ago.

Iowa (5-2, 2-1) committed three turnovers, sputtered offensively after its quick start and had its three-game winning streak end. Rudock went 32 for 56 for 317 yards and two touchdowns.

Rose kick sends Texas over Iowa State 48-45

October 19th, 2014 by Ric Hanson

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Nick Rose kicked a 21-yard field goal with 3 seconds left, sending Texas to a wild 48-45 victory over Iowa State, snapping a two-game losing streak in what had been the worst start for the Longhorns in nearly 60 years.

Iowa State had tied it 45-45 with 28 seconds left on E.J. Bibbs’ second touchdown catch. Texas quarterback Tyrone Swoopes then threw two long passes to Jaxon Shipley and John Harris to set up Rose’s winning kick.

Texas (3-4, 2-2 Big 12) first had to see if Harris’ sideline catch would hold up under review. Once confirmed, Texas sent out Rose rather than run another play. Swoopes passed for 321 yards and also ran for 95 yards and a touchdown. Sam Richardson passed for 345 yards for Iowa State (2-5, 0-4). The teams combined for more than 1,000 yards total offense.

Texas’ 2-4 start was its worst since 1956.

Planned boycott prompts team to forfeit game

Sports

October 17th, 2014 by Ric Hanson

DUNKERTON, Iowa (AP) — A plan by some Dunkerton High School players to boycott a football game has prompted officials to forfeit the match. District Superintendent Jim Stanton told the Waterloo-Cedar Falls Courier on Friday that some students decided to boycott the game to show support for another player who was suspended.

At a Thursday school board meeting, officials stood by a decision to impose an in-school suspension on the player because of his role in a fight. Another student involved also was disciplined. Dunkerton, which plays eight-man football, will forfeit the game against Don Bosco High School.

Stanton says the decision to forfeit was made because of concern that with fewer players, those who did play would be at greater risk of injury. Dunkerton is about 10 miles northeast of Waterloo.

Big Ten foes Iowa, Maryland poised for 1st meeting

Sports

October 17th, 2014 by Ric Hanson

COLLEGE PARK, Md. (AP) – Iowa and Maryland will meet on the football field for the time Saturday in a Big Ten clash at Byrd Stadium. The Hawkeyes are 5-1 overall, have won three straight and can remain in first place in the West Division with a victory. Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz says his players shouldn’t have a problem in a venue they’ve never seen before. The plan, he says, is to simply, “look around a little bit” and then go play.

Maryland is coming off a bye and seeking its first Big Ten win at home. The Terrapins lost to Ohio State 52-24 two weeks ago. Maryland brings a 4-2 record into the second half of the season, 1-1 in the Big Ten.
