Crossan Scores 2 TDs, But 'Cats Ousted by JMU
12/3/2016 1:41:00 PM | Football
HARRISONBURG, Va. – Senior running back Dalton Crossan (Lake Ronkonkoma, N.Y.) ran for a pair of touchdowns, but it was not enough and the University of New Hampshire football team dropped a 55-22 contest at James Madison University on Saturday in front of 13,221 in Bridgeforth Stadium.
UNH was eliminated from the NCAA Division I FCS tournament with the loss and finished the season with an 8-5 record.
The Wildcats were competing in the FCS playoffs for a nation's-best 13th straight season. They won their first-round game against Lehigh, 64-21, last Saturday in Wildcat Stadium to earn the shot against JMU in the second round.
James Madison improves to 11-1 overall and advances to the quarterfinal round. The Dukes won the Colonial Athletic Association regular season title with an 8-0 record.
JMU junior quarterback Bryan Schor passed for 371 yards and five touchdowns.
