Passing the Torch
Columbia 21 Cornell 14
Today's exciting Lion win was made possible by a nice mix of seniors and underclassmen heroes.
In the first half, senior Nick DeGasperis made some nice catches, and senior James Cobb ran for one-yard TD for a 7-0 Columbia lead.
Later, senior Adam Brekke made a nice interception, and then made an even nicer run for touchdown and 14-0 Lion lead.
In the third quarter, senior Tad Crawford went way up high to pick off a pass and set up the Lions' final score just one play later when junior QB Craig Hormann found fellow junior tight end Jamal Russell for a 33-yard touchdown pass.
And in the fourth quarter, the freshmen and sophomores made the big plays. First it was freshman linebacker Justin Masorti, with a first-down saving tackle early in the quarter and then a huge sack on a Cornell 4th and two later in the final frame.
On Cornell's last drive, it was sophomore Drew Quinn picking off a pass that sealed the victory!
The win ends Columbia's 16-game Ivy losing streak and puts their overall record this year at 4-5. The Lions finish their home schedule 4-2 at Wien Stadium.

More later....!
Great game and great win for the seniors who have given so much. Today's win was for them.
Congratulations Lions.
liked Stoll leading the running game
While it was a nail biter, you gotta love the offense making some progress. Glad the seniors went out with a win at home. BEAT BROWN!
We can have a five and five season. Come on guys, you CAN do it!!
A Win would create a nice dynamic for this program to recruit in the offseason and really take this to the next level.
