Ivy League Wrap

Holy Cross 35, Brown 14

PROVIDENCE, R.I.--Brown continued its search for its first victory of the season Saturday against Holy Cross.

The Bruins are still looking.

Sparked by fullback Joe Segretti's 150-yd., four-touchdown performance, Holy Cross easily defeated Brown, 35-14. Brown (0-3-1, 0-5-1) is the only Ivy League team not to win a game this season.

Brown quarterback Danny Clark was injured on the second offensive play for the Bruins. Substitute Dan Rukamp threw for only 62 yards in the game.

The Crusaders cruised to a 29-0 lead with four runs by Segretti and a safety. It was the second straight week that Segretti has scored four times.

Darrin Darrington sacked Rukamp in the first quarter on a third-and-eight situation deep in Bruin territory.

Holy Cross quarterback Jeff Wiley completed 16 of 26 passes for 171 yards.

Holy Cross scored its last touchdown of the game when Viv Washington recovered a fumbled pass completion in the end zone.

Brown's only offensive touchdown of the game--and its first score in 11 quarters--came in the fourth quarter on a one-yard run by Nick Badalato. The Bruins scored again on blocked punt recovery by Matt Malbandian.

Bucknell 21, Columbia 7

NEW YORK--Bucknell captured its first victory of the season, defeating Columbia, 21-7, Saturday at Lawrence A. Wien Stadium.

The Lions (1-3, 1-5), who two weeks ago snapped their 44-game losing streak, have lost their last two games.

Solomon Johnson gave the Lions and early 7-0 lead on a 1-yd. score with 1:52 left in the half.

But the Bison, which lost to Princeton, 41-35, last week, scored three touchdowns to put the game away and hand the Lions a new losing streak.

Bucknell scored with 21 seconds left in the half on a 15-yd. reception by Mike Guerrini. Dan Scocca made it 14-7 on a 15-yd. run with 6:14 remaining in the third quarter.

Two minutes later, Brian Henessey scored on a 21-yd. sprint down the right side of the field for the final score of the game.
