Lehigh Runs for 389 Yards and Beats William & Mary 44-20
Lehigh led 37-7 at halftime and then, in the third quarter, nobody scored at all. That was plenty of time for the Mountain Hawks to rest, because they won 44-20 and never trailed.
The first half was the whole game. Luke Yoder ran in from a yard out with 12:07 left in the first quarter, and a team safety 11 seconds later made it 9-0. Yoder added a 2-yard score, Derek Morgan threw a 22-yard touchdown to Nick Palumbo, and Hayden Johnson broke a 50-yard run to make it 30-0 with 9:08 left in the second. Jah'Kei Chavis got William & Mary on the board with a 4-yarder with 1:54 left in the half, and Morgan answered with an 8-yard run with 0:02 left, so it was 37-7 at the break.
William & Mary scored twice more, a Chavis 1-yard run to open the fourth quarter and a Winston Watkins 1-yard run with 2:42 left (the two-point try failed). In between, Yoder scored a third time, from 11 yards, to make it 44-14. The yardage was lopsided too: Lehigh had 509 yards to William & Mary's 363, with 389 on the ground on 48 carries and only 120 through the air.
William & Mary threw an interception and lost a fumble. Lehigh turned the ball over zero times. Lehigh is 3-0 and William & Mary is 2-1.
For fantasy, Yoder had 169 yards and three touchdowns on 23 carries for 34.9 points, and Morgan, a quarterback who threw four passes, had 20.6. That is a good week for someone who started him.
