Around the Ivy: Yale, Brown in First with Two Weeks Left

In the third quarter, Walland led an 85-yard Yale scoring drive capped by a 2-yard touchdown run by Josh Phillips. The score gave Yale a comfortable 30-14 advantage, and its ball control offense prevented the Big Red from making a comeback.

For his part, Walland--who was named the Ivy League Offensive Player of the Week--completed 24 of 33 passing attempts for 244 yards. He is now just 77 yards shy of breaking the Yale record for career passing yards.

Also for Yale, wideout Eric Johnson caught 8 passes for 92 yards and two touchdowns.
