Football – 6-2 (Centennial Conference 4-2)

Last Week – Defeated Juniata College*, 23-17. *Centennial Conference Game.

This Week – Sat., Nov. 1st  vs. Ursinus College*, 1:00 p.m. *Centennial Conference Game.

 

            Senior quarterback Marc Braxmeier (Center Valley, PA/Allentown Central Catholic) scored on a one-yard dive in the third overtime for his second touchdown run of the game to lead the Moravian College football team to a 23-17, triple-overtime come-from-behind victory at Juniata College in Centennial Conference action at Knox Stadium Saturday afternoon.

The victory clinches the Greyhounds’ 17th winning season under 22-year head coach Scot Dapp and improves Moravian to 6-2 overall and 4-2 in Centennial Conference action.  The win was also Moravian’s fourth in five overtime games with Juniata.  The Eagles fall to 1-7 overall and 1-5 in Centennial Conference.

Moravian won the coin toss for the eighth straight game this season but received the opening kickoff for just the second time.  Junior tailback Ryan Rempe (Dickson City, PA/Mid-Valley) gave the Greyhounds the ball near midfield with a long return.  Rempe, who started for an injured Tyler McCambridge (Northampton, PA/Allentown Central Catholic), had 37 yards on four carries on the drive that stalled at the Juniata ten-yard line.  Rempe tied the school record in the game with 51 carries, and he had a career high 174 yards.  Senior kicker Bran Reckenbeil came in to attempt a 27-yard field goal from the left hash mark; however, his kick hit the left upright and bounced away.  The miss was just Reckenbeil’s third of the season in 14 attempts.

The Eagles would run just three plays before punting the ball back to Moravian. The Greyhounds put together a 13-play drive to move down to Juniata 20-yard line with nine carries by Rempe, and Moravian picked up a pair of fourth downs in the drive.  Reckenbeil would come on to attempt another field goal, this one of 38 yards.  Juniata junior defensive back Brandon Spayd broke through the line and as Reckenbeil had a slower attempt because of the rain and wet and muddy field, Spayd blocked the field goal attempt.

Moravian needed just six plays to get the ball back when senior defensive back Carl Robinson (Boothwyn, PA/Garnet Valley) intercepted a pass by Eagle senior quarterback Jay Leonard at the Moravian 49-yard line. However, Rempe would fumble three plays later on the final play of the first quarter that was recovered by Juniata freshman defensive lineman Jason Marquis.  The Eagles ran just three plays before punting again. The teams would trade punts with Moravian senior Michael Voskian (Brielle, NJ/Manasquan) having his first punt of the game downed at the Juniata 14-yard line. Voskian punted eight times for an average of 37.1 yards per punt in the contest.

After the Eagles third punt of the game, Moravian began its next drive at the Juniata 47-yard line.  On the first play Braxmeier connected on a 31-yard pass to sophomore wide receiver Shawn Sylvainus (Nazareth, PA/Nazareth) to put the ball in the red zone for the third time for the Greyhounds.  Rempe would run three times and pick up a first down while moving the ball to the one-yard line.  Braxmeier would finally get the Greyhounds on the scoreboard with a one-yard dive for his third rushing touchdown of the season.  Reckenbeil connected on his 60th straight extra-point to give Moravian a 7-0 lead with 9:19 to go in the second quarter.

Juniata would run just three plays before punting back to the Greyhounds.  Sophomore wide receiver Alex Hersch (Macungie, PA/Emmaus) had a 13-yard punt return to set the Moravian offense up at its own 47-yard line.  However, the Greyhounds would punt after three plays.

Each team would again punt after a pair of three-and-outs.  On Voskian’s third punt, Greyhound senior linebacker Andrew Morrissey (Emmaus, PA/Emmaus) made his fifth tackle of the game, which was the 300th tackle of his career, just the tenth Greyhound player to reach 300 career tackles.

On Juniata’s seven drive of the game, Robinson intercepted his second pass of the game and returned it one yard to the Juniata 47-yard line to set the Greyhound offense up with 1:46 remaining in the first half.

Moravian picked up a pair of first downs on throws by Braxmeier.  The Greyhounds appeared to score on a 24-yard touchdown pass from Braxmeier to Sylvainus; however, a Moravian holding penalty negated the score.  Braxmeier was eventually intercepted by Spayd on the three-yard line on a fourth-and-23 play.

The Eagles received the opening kickoff of the second half and started at its own 40-yard line after the kickoff went out of the bounds.  Juniata put together its drive of the game and moved 60 yards in eight plays to tie the game on a three-yard pass from Leonard to junior wide receiver Matt Dunker.  Freshman Tyler Thomas made the extra-point to tie the game with 12:10 to play in the third quarter.  On the drive, Leonard hit Dunker with a 25-yard completion on a fourth-and-seven play from the Moravian 28-yard line.  Dunker ended the game with four receptions for 71 yards.

Moravian picked up one first down on its first drive of the second half but would eventually punt with Voskian’s punt sailing into the end zone for a touchback.

Juniata covered the 80 yards to the end zone and took the lead on seven plays.  Leonard connected on a ten-yard touchdown pass to senior wide receiver Chad Steiner.  Thomas made the extra-point to take a 14-7 lead with 6:23 to play in the third quarter.  Leonard completed 20 of 52 passes for 180 yards with two touchdowns and three interceptions while Steiner caught six passes for 37 yards.

The Greyhounds turned the ball over on its first play when Braxmeier was intercepted by Juniata junior defensive back Andy Miller and returned it ten yards to the Moravian 20-yard line.  However, the Eagles threw four incomplete passes to turn the ball back over the Moravian.

Each team would have a pair of three-and-out drives before the Greyhounds took over at their own 32-yard line.  Moravian picked up two first downs before turning the ball over on downs at the Juniata 36-yard line.

The Eagles would get a first down before punting on their first drive of the fourth quarter while Moravian would do the same.  Juniata then punted after three plays on its next possession.  After one more punt by each school, Braxmeier would be sacked and fumble on a hit by Juniata junior defensive end Dan Kraft.  Marquis recovered his second fumble for the Eagles as Juniata took over at its own 34-yard line with 3:10 to play. The Greyhound defense would get the ball back just three players later when Robinson hit Eagle junior fullback Ryan Blanchette at the Juniata 41-yard line and forced a fumble.  Robinson fell on the ball to set the Moravian offense up with 1:51 to play.

Braxmeier hit Sylvainus with a 34-yard reception on the first play to the four-yard line.  Rempe was stopped for a loss of a yard before Braxmeier found senior wide receiver Tyler Hersch (Macungie, PA/Emmaus) with a five-yard touchdown pass.  Reckenbeil added the extra-point to tie the game at 14-14 with 30 seconds remaining in regulation. Braxmeier completed 16 of 31 passes for 191 yards in the game while Sylvainus finished with career highs of 11 receptions and 155 yards in just his third game of the season.  Tyler Hersch had three catches for 35 yards.

The Eagles attempted to move down the field to get in position to win the game; however, Leonard was intercepted by Moravian sophomore defense back Daniel Burley (Easton, PA/Easton) at the Moravian 34-yard line.  Burley returned the ball 44 yards to the Juniata 22-yard line, and after the officials discussed the time situation, there was one second remaining in the game.  Reckenbeil came on to attempt a 39-yard field goal that ended up going to wide left to end regulation. This marked the seventh time in the 54-games between the two schools that the squads were tied at the end of regulation including five straight games from 1995 to 1999.  The last four of those games were played under the NCAAs overtime rules with Moravian winning three of those contests.

Juniata had the ball first in overtime and would gain just four yards before Thomas came in to attempt a 38-yard field goal.  Moravian freshman defensive back David Wacker (Parkton, MD/Hereford) came in untouched from the right side to block Thomas’ attempt. On Moravian first possession of overtime, the Greyhounds handed the ball to Rempe on four straight plays to move to the Juniata seven-yard line.  Reckenbeil came in on third-and-three to attempt a 25-yard field goal that sailed wide left while kicking from the end of the field where a majority of the game was played and muddy.

Moravian had the ball first in the second overtime session.  Braxmeier hit Sylvainus with an eight-yard pass on first down before Rempe ran three times to move the ball back to the Juniata seven-yard line.  Braxmeier was sacked on third down setting up Reckenbeil’s fifth field goal attempt of the game.  Reckenbeil connected on the 28-yard attempt to give the Greyhounds a 17-14 lead.  It was his school record 12th of the season and the 40th of his career.

Juniata would pick up one first down on its second possession of overtime on a five-yard draw play by Leonard with an empty backfield.  However, the Eagle drive stalled at the ten-yard line.  Thomas would come in and make a 27-yard field goal that barely cleared the cross bar. The Eagles would have the ball on offense first in the third overtime.  Leonard threw three incomplete passes forcing Thomas to attempt a 42-yard field goal.  Thomas’ kick would end up being blocked by Moravian senior defensive lineman Don Maxwell (Berkley Heights, NJ/Governor Livingston).

Moravian would start its possession with a four-yard loss by sophomore running back Ricky AllenRempe then carries three straight times to gain a first down and move the ball to the 11-yard line.  Braxmeier would run the ball twice to pick up a first down at the Juniata four-yard line.  Rempe then ran the ball down to the one-yard line on his record tying 51st carry of the game where Braxmeier would then score his second touchdown of the game and earn the Moravian win.

The Greyhounds ran a total of 97 plays in the game for 341 yards in the game with 150 yards on the ground.  Rempe was the only one of Moravian’s four players that carried the ball that ended up in positive yardage.  Alex Hersch tied the school record with seven punt returns in the game for a total of 46 yards.

The Eagles were limited to 245 yards on 78 plays with just 65 yards on the ground.  Sophomore Derek Kramer had 29 yards on 12 attempts while Leonard had 26 yards on six carries.  McKechnie was limited to eight yards on three attempts.  Freshman wide receiver Abram Mellinger had three catches for 42 yards while freshman wide receiver Dan Fenton caught three passes for 12 passes.

Morrissey led the Moravian defense with nine tackles including one and a half tackles for loss and one pass break-up while senior linebacker Kevin McGorry (Whitehall, PA/Allentown Central Catholic) added eight tackles.  Burley, Robinson and sophomore linebacker Anthony Carney (Bethlehem, PA/Bethlehem Catholic) each had four tackles.  Burley had one interception an another pass break up while Robinson had two interceptions, a pass break-up, a forced fumble, a fumble recovery and a tackle for loss.
