Bombers Blow Up Hobart's Homecoming, 31-7

It was no good, just the bad and ugly Saturday at Boswell Field as the #13 Ithaca College Bombers dominated Hobart at Homecoming and Family Weekend, 31-7.

Ithaca (4-0, 1-0) turned two Statesmen turnovers into 14 points in the second quarter and never looked back. Hobart (3-2, 0-1) hurt themselves with a bad snap that turned into a scoop and score, among other gaffes. The Bombers outgained the Statesmen 329-210 total yards.


Bombers SR QB A.J. Wingfield had a modest 10-16, 143 yards passing day and scored on a one-yard TD run in the second half. Wingfield got picked off on a long pass play that turned into the tip drill by 5th year SR DB Jay McCoy. Unfortunately, neither Hobart QB was really effective in the game either, and JR RB Tim Denham, Jr. saved the Statesmen from being shutout with a late rushing score. He had a game high 54 rush yards. JR RB Rayshawn Boswell led all receivers with 73 yards on six catches. SO LB Peterson Monexant led all tacklers with 11, 2 TFL and a sack. 

Hobart is on a bye next weekend and will have back-to-back road trips to RPI and Saint Lawrence in Weeks 7 and 8. With no game to cover, I'll plan to do a recap of the first half of the season. This was a deflating loss, but the season is far from over. There's a lot more football to go.

Thanks for reading and go 'Bart!
