MADISON, NJ - Sophomore running back Ben Guiles (Columbia, PA/Columbia) had 11 carries for 119 yards and two touchdowns while senior running back Charlie Parker (Landisville, PA/Hempfield) added 20 carries for 82 yards and a score as Lebanon Valley knocked off the College at Florham Devils, 40-14, on Saturday afternoon.

With the win, the Devils dropped to 1-5 (0-3 MAC) while the Dutchmen improved to 5-1 (2-1 MAC).

Lebanon Valley returned the opening kickoff of the game 53 yards to the FDU 33 yard line.  Seven plays later, junior quarterback Caleb Fick (Emmaus, PA/Emmaus) tossed a four-yard touchdown pass to senior wide receiver Joe Brennan (Pottsville, PA/Nativity BVM) to give the Dutchmen a 6-0 lead.  After a three-and-out of FDU's first series, Lebanon Valley made it 13-0 with a 13 play 64 yard drive capped by a seven-yard touchdown pass from Fick to senior wide receiver Sean Donovan (King of Prussia, PA/Upper Marion) with 5:21 left in the first quarter.  The Dutchmen then made it 20-0 on the first series of the second quarter when Guiles ran it in from 12 yards out.

FDU cut it to 20-7 on their next possession as the Devils drove 69 yards in 13 plays.  The touchdown came on a 22-yard pass from senior quarterback Bill Winters (Brick, NJ/Brick) to junior wide receiver Andrew Scamporino (Secaucus, NJ/Secaucus).  During the drive, Scamporino had four catches for 46 yards.  Lebanon Valley responded immediately though, as they took a 27-7 advantage on their next drive when Parker rushed for a three-yard touchdown with 4:00 left in the first half.  After the Devils got a drive going but turned the ball over on downs at the LVC 37 yard line, the Dutchmen marched 63 yards in six plays to take a 33-7 lead with 0:25 left in the half on a six-yard touchdown by Guiles.

The third quarter was scoreless but the Devils did have one opportunity to add points.  Starting at their own 15 yard line, Winters led FDU down to the LVC three but on first-and-goal junior running back Brendon Griffin (Riverside, NJ/Riverside) fumbled at the one yard line and the Dutchmen recovered.  On their first drive of the fourth quarter, senior safety Jason Glezman (Lincroft, NJ/Mater Dei) picked off sophomore quarterback Colt Zarilla (Dover, PA/Dover) on the FDU two yard line but the Devils couldn't move the ball and were forced to punt.  A 20-yard punt gave the Dutchmen the ball on the FDU 21 yard line and on the second play, sophomore running back Blair Ransom (Horsham, PA/Hatboro-Horsham) made it 40-7 on a three-yard touchdown run.

The Devils cut it to 40-14 on a 16-yard scoring strike from Winters to senior wide receiver Lou Pietrangelo (Colonia, NJ/Colonia) with 8:05 left in the game but FDU could not pull any closer, allowing Lebanon Valley to pick up the victory.

Winters finished the game 23-of-42 for 261 yards to go along with two touchdown and one interception.  Scamporino had seven catches for 93 yards while senior wide receiver Kyle Bukowiec (Howell, NJ/Howell) made seven grabs for 87 yards.  Pietrangelo hauled in four passes for 58 yards and senior tight end Beau Reed (Ocean, NJ/Rumson) had four catches for 19 yards.

On defense, sophomore linebacker Steve Hoverson (Middletown, NJ/Iona) had a game-high 12 tackles, two for loss, and a forced fumble.  Glezman finished with seven tackles and a pick, junior linebacker Ian Moore (Haddon Heights, NJ/Haddon Heights) had six tackles, a half sack and a fumble recovery while sophomore defensive tackle Sean Riley (Holmdel, NJ/Holmdel) had five tackles and a half sack.

The Devils return to action on Saturday, October 24, 2009, at Wilkes beginning at 1 pm.
