Hobart Rolls Rochester, 31-0, Awaits ECAC Bowl Selection

The Hobart College Statesmen earned a 31-0 win over Rochester Saturday, grinding out 314 rushing yards. SO/JR RB Tim Denham, Jr. eclipsed the 1,000 mark on the season with a 14 rush, 159 yard and 3 TD game. 

Hobart (8-2, 4-2) will await word from the ECAC on Monday to see if they will be granted a postseason bowl bid (I'm really confident they will).

While Denham, Jr. was certainly the star of the show, 5th year SR FS Cal Sullivan also had a capstone moment. He stepped in front of a UofR (3-7, 1-5) pass and returned it 86 yards for a TD! Such a great play!

FY PK Tobias Wefering added an impressive 43 yard FG, a career best, to cap off the scoring

SR OLB Emmett Forde and JR/SR Bryan Aguilar each added 8 tackles to lead the Statesmen D. Forde added a sack and 2 TFL.

The win wraps the season with Hobart tied for 3rd place in the LL with Union's stunning 19-17 loss to RPI (9-1, 5-1). Hobart at least knows they beat the league champs. 

Tune into In the D3FB Huddle Monday around 12:30 PM ET for the ECAC Selection Show. I have a feeling we'll be calling the Statesmen's name.

Thanks for reading and go 'Bart!
