Holy Cross Runs for 325 Yards and Beats Richmond 33-14
Joseph Williams carried 19 times for 206 yards and three touchdowns, and Holy Cross needed every one of them. Richmond scored first and led 14-7 after the first quarter, and then went the final three quarters without a point.
Aziz Foster-Powell scored from 3 yards out at 10:53 of the first quarter, and Williams tied it with a 21-yard run at 3:51. Andreas Hill caught an 11-yard pass from Ashten Snelsire with 0:45 left in the quarter to put the Spiders up 14-7. Williams scored from 3 yards at 7:08 of the second quarter, but the extra point failed, so Richmond still led 14-13. That was the last lead it would hold.
Jake Croce ran in from 2 yards at 3:13 of the third quarter (the two-point try failed) to make it 19-14 Holy Cross, and Williams broke a 62-yard run at 11:04 of the fourth to make it 26-14. Croce scored again from 2 yards at 5:01 and that was the 33-14 final. Holy Cross rushed 41 times for 325 yards and passed for only 92. Richmond gained 209 total yards and threw an interception.
Take away Williams' 62-yarder and this finishes 26-14. Still a Holy Cross win, but a 12-point one instead of 19, and Williams still has 144 yards and two other touchdowns to his name. Holy Cross goes to 4-4. Richmond falls to 6-2.
For fantasy, Williams scored 39.4 Promethium points, his season high, and nobody else in the game came within 22 of it.
