Long Island University Sharks at Wagner Seahawks
· NCAA - FootballGreenwood's 3-touchdown day carries Long Island University past Wagner 35-28 in season finale
The Sharks, who lost their first six games to start the season, won four of their final six games to finish 4-8 (3-3 in the Northeast Conference). Wagner lost its final four games to finish (4-8, 2-4).
Greenwood drove the Sharks to the Wagner 19 on their opening drive before being stopped on fourth down, but Wagner could not manage a first down on its first possession and punted. On the second play of the drive, Greenwood broke free up the middle and raced 56 yards for the touchdown. LIU forced a second Wagner three-and-out and needed just four plays to cover 75 yards, with the Greenwood-to-Howell pass making it 14-0. Jake Cady got the Seahawks untracked on their next possession, thanks in part to a pass interference penalty before hitting Jaylen Bonelli for a 35-yard reception to set up Rickey Spruill's 3-yard touchdown to halve the deficit to 14-7.
LIU drove 75 yards in 12 plays, beginning late in the third quarter capped by Choquette's touchdown to push the lead to 35-21 with just under 12 minutes left. Wagner answered with a 13-play, 65-yard drive capped by Cady's 1-yard run to get within a touchdown, but a 13-play, 64-yard drive for a potential tying score was stopped when Cady threw incomplete from the LIU 12 with five seconds left.
Greenwood completed 8 of 12 passes for 129 yards with an interception and carried 18 times for 133 yards, adding a 5-yard run to the end zone in the second quarter to make it 21-14 at intermission.
Cady was 15-of-29 passing for 143 yards for Wagner.
