The Hobart College Statesmen racked up 504 yards of offense while limiting the University of Rochester to 180 yards and only 10 first downs yesterday at the Boz in a commanding, 38-7, win over the Yellow Jackets.
The Statesmen (5-3, 3-2) were led on offense once again by SR RB E.J. Taylor who racked up 169 rushing yards and three TDs in the game. SO QB Aidan Conrath was an efficient 17-23 for 220 yards, and his OL didn't allow him to be sacked on the day. JR RB Tristan Reynolds made the most of his touches, scoring two rushing TDs to go with 11 carries for 77 yards. JR WR Johnny Harding led the receiving corps with seven catches for 93 yards.
The only complaint I had with yesterday's game on offense was the Statesmen's struggles on third down. Even though they controlled the game, Hobart was held to five of 12 on third downs, and at one point it was one of seven.
Defensively the Statesmen were led by FY LB Tyler Cumming who is probably in line for another ROTW award from the Liberty League after a 10-tackle performance. Hobart sacked Rochester's QB Shawn Bellenger five times and picked him off twice.
