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

Last Week – Lost to *Gettysburg College, 27-20.  *Centennial Conference game

This Week – Sat., Oct. 13th at *Franklin & Marshall College, 1:00 p.m.  *Centennial Conference game

                Gettysburg College held on for a 27-20 Centennial Conference victory over Moravian College at Rocco Calvo Field. The Bullets had to hold off a second half Moravian rally as the Greyhounds, who trailed, 24-0, at halftime, scored 20 of the game’s 23 second-half points.  The loss is the second straight for the Greyhounds in conference play as the team drops to 4-2 overall and 2-2 in Centennial Conference action.

                Moravian received the opening kickoff of the game and drove down to the Gettysburg 28-yard line; however, junior kicker Brian Reckenbeil (Branchburg, NJ/Somerville HS) ended up just wide right on a 44-yard field goal attempt for the Greyhounds.  The Bullets took over on their own 27-yard line and would drive down the field on 11 plays and score on a two-yard run for a 7-0 lead with 5:28 remaining in the first quarter.

                The Greyhounds had a pair of big plays on their next drive including a 29-yard pass from junior quarterback Marc Braxmeier (Center Valley, PA/Allentown Central Catholic HS) to senior wide receiver Sean Hill (West Reading, PA/Wyomissing HS) and a 26-yard run by junior fullback Morgan deRouen (West Milford, NJ/West Milford HS) moved the ball to the Gettysburg 10-yard line.  However, Braxmeier was intercepted in the end zone on third down on a pass attempt to senior tight end Kris Bisci (Easton, PA/Easton HS) and the Bullets returned the ball out to the Gettysburg 23-yard line.  The Bullets needed just five plays, with the help of two personal fouls against Moravian, to extend their lead to 14-0 with 1:20 to play in the first quarter.

                Moravian started its next drive at its own 46-yard line after a 40-yard kickoff return by junior wide receiver Tyler Hersch (Macungie, PA/Emmaus HS).  However, another Moravian personal foul would force the Greyhounds to punt with junior punter Michael Voskian’s (Brielle, NJ/Manasquan HS) kick rolling out of bounds at the Gettysburg four-yard line.

                Gettysburg slowly moved the ball down the field, taking 15 snaps to get to the Moravian 23-yard line for a 39-yard field goal with 9:14 remaining in the second quarter to give the Bullets a 17-0 lead.

                On Moravian’s first play of the ensuing drive, Braxmeier was intercepted again, this time at the Gettysburg 29-yard line.  However, the Bullets would run just two plays before Greyhound junior defensive back Carl Robinson (Boothwyn, PA/Garnet Valley HS) intercepted a pass by at the Moravian 45-yard line.  The Greyhounds moved the ball down to the Gettysburg 35-yard line where the team faced a fourth-and-one.  Braxmeier was sacked for a ten-yard loss and turned the ball back over to Gettysburg.  The Bullets would run six plays to get into the end zone for a 24-0 lead with 2:02 remaining in the first half. 

                Gettysburg received the opening kickoff of the second half and ran just two plays before Robinson intercepted a pass for the second time in the game, giving Moravian the ball at midfield.  Moravian drove down to the Gettysburg 15-yard line in five plays before Reckenbeil connected on a 33-yard field goal to get the Greyhounds on the scoreboard and cut the Bullet lead to 24-3 with 10:27 remaining in the third quarter.

                Gettysburg would turn the ball over again on its next drive when Moravian junior defensive back Eric Brinkerhoff (Boonton, NJ/Boonton HS) hit the quarterback from the blind side and forced a fumble.  Junior defensive lineman Robert Kadel (Blairstown, NJ/North Warren HS) recovered the ball and returned it down to the Gettysburg 15-yard line.  However, Moravian gained just three yards and had two passes dropped in the end zone before settling for a 29-yard field goal by Reckenbeil, to cut the Bullet lead to 24-6 with 7:12 remaining in the third quarter.  The field goal was Reckenbeil’s school record tenth of the season and his 27th career field goal, also a school record. 

                Gettysburg would score their only points of the second half on the ensuing drive on a 27-yard field goal by with 3:53 to go in the third quarter to increase the Gettysburg lead back to 27-6.   Moravian capped a 13-play drive with Braxmeier finding Hill in the end zone for a four-yard touchdown pass.  Reckenbeil’s extra-point cut the Gettysburg lead to 27-13 with 13:41 remaining in the contest.  The Moravian defense would force Gettysburg into a three-and-punt series on the ensuing drive. 

                The Greyhounds would move down the field and move into the red zone before facing a third-and-ten from the Gettysburg 14-yard line.  The Bullets were called for pass interference in the end zone on the third down play, giving Moravian the ball at the two-yard line with a first down.  deRouen scored his second touchdown of the season on the next play from two-yards away.  Recekenbeil’s 19th straight extra-point of the season and his 28th consecutive made extra-point dating back to 2006 pulled the Greyhounds within 27-20 with 6:24 to go.

                Moravian would begin its final drive at its own eight-yard line.  Braxmeier found freshman wide receiver Shawn Sylvainus (Nazareth, PA/Nazareth HS) for a 30-yard completion on the second play of the drive and a Gettysburg personal foul on the same play moved the ball to the Gettysburg 46-yard line.  The Bullet defense would stiffen forcing Moravian into a short gain on a rushing play, a sack of Braxmeier for the fifth time in the game, and two incomplete passes to take possession back and run out the clock.

                deRouen led the Moravian rushing attack with 80 yards on ten carries including his touchdown while freshman tailback Ricky Allen (Pocono Summit, PA/Pocono Mountain West HS) had 25 yards on 13 attempts as the Greyhounds played without its top two tailbacks juniors Tyler McCambridge (Northampton, PA/Allentown Central Catholic HS) and Tyler deRouen (West Milford, NJ/West Milford HS) for the second straight week due to injuries.  Braxmeier completed 20 of 30 passes for 229 yards with two interceptions and the touchdown pass.  Sylvainus caught seven passes for 85 yards while Hersch had five catches for 59 yards.  Hill caught four passes for 52 yards and his sixth touchdown of the season while Bisci had four catches for 23 yards.

                Junior linebacker Andrew Morrissey (Emmaus, PA/Emmaus HS) had a team high ten tackles for the Greyhounds while senior linebacker Zach Santiago (Bethlehem, PA/Bethlehem Catholic HS) added nine tackles.  Junior defensive lineman Don Maxwell (Berkeley Heights, NJ/Governor Livingston HS) had eight stops while junior defensive end Douglas Bocchino (Madison, NJ/Madison HS) and junior linebacker Derek Protasiewicz (Whippany, NJ/Whippany Park HS) each made seven stops.
