Dartmouth swats away two late field-goal attempts; Hampton tops Morgan St.
Charlie Miller and Jeremiah Douchee blocked two field-goal attempts in the final three minutes and host Dartmouth held on for a 20-17 football win over Towson on Saturday.
The Tigers marched 94 yards in 15 plays, but Miller blocked Aidan O'Neill's 22-yard field-goal try with 2:19 left. After forcing a three-and-out, Towson picked up 33 yards to reach the Big Green 39 with one second left. That's when Douchee blocked O'Neill's 56-yard attempt.
The Big Green (3-2) took a 20-10 lead in the third quarter when running back Abrm McQuarters took a backward swing pass to the right, then pulled up to hit Drew Hunnicutt for a 23-yard touchdown.
The Tigers' Diondre Wallace picked off a pass by Jack Heneghan and returned it 20 yards to the Dartmouth 11. Deshaun Wethington cashed in with a 1-yard plunge to pull Towson (1-5) within a field goal late in the third quarter.
Wethington finished with 145 yards on 27 carries. Christian Summers and Andre Dessenberg combined for 23 receptions and had 140 yards apiece for the Tigers as Ellis Knudson passed for 305 yards.
After Morgan State fumbled a punt snap on its opening possession, Hampton wide receiver Twarn Mixson found Williamson for a 15-yard score with 7:40 left in the first quarter.
