Harvard, Brown, Cornell Stay Unbeaten in Ivy Week Two

Cornell senior Deon Harris continued the milestone day with a career-high 143 yards rushing. Harris is off to a hot start with 256 yards rushing on 51 carries in the opening two weeks.

Pennsylvania (1-1), the other Week One winner in the league, was less lucky in its attempt to stay unbeaten, as it was pounded by Villanova (3-1), 34-6.

Bombarded by the aerial assault of Villanova quarterback Chris Boden, who set a school record with 424 yards passing, the Penn defense could not repeat its opening week performance, when it held Dartmouth to only six points in a 17-6 win.

The sole shining light for Penn was linebacker Jim Hisgen, who recorded 10 tackles and one sack in a losing cause.

In New Haven, Conn., Yale rebounded from its defensive collapse in its opener against Brown by downing Valparaiso (2-1), 48-2.

Headlined by Joe Walland's 281 yards passing in only two and one-half quarters of play, the Elis used six quarterbacks in the game and amassed 369 yards through the air.

Peter Mazza's 67-yard interception return for a touchdown in the third quarter sealed the game for the Elis.
