HAMILTON, N.Y. (AP) — Michael Brescia ran for two touchdowns and Colgate collected 270 yards rushing and the Raiders beat Cornell in the Big Red's season opener, 41-24 on Saturday.
Trailing 17-10, Brescia had a 44-yard scoring run with 11:06 before halftime. With 3:54 left before halftime, Brescia ran it in from the 1 to end a nine-play, 58-yard drive that lasted 5:12. Colgate led for the remainder.
Chris Gee ran for 79 yards on 15 carries, Brescia ran for 77 yards on 11 carries, Marco Maldonado ran for 73 yards on 10 carries and scored a touchdown and Winston Moore ran for 31 yards and reached the end zone once with just two carries.
Jake Stearney threw for 184 yards and a touchdown for Colgate (1-3).
Jameson Wang threw a 10-yard touchdown to Samuel Musungu to put the Big Red up 10-3. Colgate responded when Stearney found Brady Hutchison for a 27-yard score to tie it. Wang gave Colgate its last lead when he threw a 2-yard score to Parker Woodring early in the second quarter.
Wang finished 29-for-37 passing for 313 yards and three touchdowns.
