Football Falls at Adrian

ADRIAN, Mich. - The Benedictine University football team could not overcome four turnovers in a 36-7 loss at Adrian College as part of the MIAA-NACC Challenge Series.

Adrian opened the scoring midway through the first with a field goal following an interception. Joe Dickert had blocked a field goal attempt two plays prior to the pick. Trailing 10-0 early in the second quarter, Chris Branson blocked a punt to set up the lone Benedictine touchdown. Luke Ludolph raced across the goal line from three yards out, bringing Benedictine within 10-7 at the 8:46 mark. Adrian responded immediately and went on to score 26 unanswered points.

Benedictine finished with 224 yards of offense but managed only 31 on the ground. The Eagles managed just 24:31 in time of possession. Omar Lopez caught four passes for 69 yards while Jesse Kilbourn snared seven passes from Ryan Sample for 57 yards. Sample completed 17 passes for 194 yards, but threw three interceptions. Micayel McKechnie paced the defense with eight tackles including 2.5 for loss.

Benedictine (1-2) takes a week off before welcoming another MIAA opponent in Kalamazoo College on October 3 at 6:30 p.m.
