STONY BROOK, N.Y. – Junior quarterback Max Brosmer (Roswell, Ga.) completed 28 of 40 passes for 335 yards and four touchdowns and senior Dylan Laube (Westhampton Beach, N.Y.) celebrated his final game in his native Long Island with two scores to lead the 22^nd-ranked UNH football team to Saturday afternoon's 45-14 CAA victory against Stony Brook at LaValle Stadium.

With its second straight win, UNH improved to 4-3 overall and 2-2 in the CAA. Stony Brook slipped to 0-7, 0-5 CAA.

Brosmer threw his four scoring passes to four separate receivers and distributed the ball to nine receivers overall while playing turnover-free football. He added a rushing score on a fake field goal.

Laube, the nation's leader in all-purpose yards, totaled a game-high 149. He was the Wildcats' top ground-gainer (42 yards on 15 rushes) and secured a team-high seven receptions for 57 yards. He scored on a 23-yard reception and a seven-yard rush.

It's another @EnviroVantage TOUCHDOWN!

FIRST QUARTER

Junior Nate Kapongo (Westbrook, Maine/one tackle) blocked Spencer Biscoe's 36-yard field goal attempt to stifle Stony Brook's game-opening drive. Senior Derek Thompson (Bear, Del./one tackle) scooped the ball up and returned it 23 yards to the Wildcat 47-yard line at 13:27.
Three players later, facing a 3^rd-and-11 from the 46, Brosmer connected with Corcoran for a 54-yard touchdown pass and a 7-0 lead following the PAT from sophomore Nick Mazzie (Boxford, Mass.) at 11:57.
A seven-yard TD rush from Stony Brook's Roland Dempster (eight rushes, 24 yards, TD) tied the game, 7-7, at 9:12.
Mazzie's 44-yard field goal allowed the Wildcats to reclaim the lead, 10-7, at 4:34.

SECOND QUARTER

The Wildcats increased their lead to 17-7 courtesy of a methodical 10-play, 75-yard drive punctuated by Brosmer's five-yard touchdown pass to redshirt freshman Colby Ramshaw (Londonderry, N.H./two receptions, 10 yards, TD) at 12:37.
The tight end scored his third TD of the season and second in as many weeks.
The drive included three catches for 46 yards for senior tight end Kyle Lepkowski (Adamstown, Md./five receptions, 65 yards).
Brosmer's third TD pass of the half was a 23-yard hookup with Laube to increase the lead to 24-7 at 8:48.
SBU had an emphatic response on its next drive. On 3^rd-and-14 from its own 2-yard line, Casey Case (18-for-29, 255 yards, TD) completed a flat pass to Jayce Freeman (two catches, 115 yards, TD). Freeman appeared dead to the rights, but once he broke a tackle he raced for a school-record 98-yard TD that trimmed the Wildcats' lead to 24-14 at 7:05.
The Seawolves' next drive was halted when Garron strip-sacked Case and recovered the fumble at the SBU 45.
UNH parlayed the turnover into another touchdown when Brosmer executed a fake field goal and scored on a nine-yard rush to the left pylon for a 31-14 lead with 24 seconds remaining in the half.

The fourth @EnviroVantage TOUCHDOWN of the half!

Max Brosmer has accounted for all 4⃣ TDs today, this one on a nine-yard rush on a fake field goal.

THIRD QUARTER

One play after Tillett broke up Case's 4^th-and-3 pass intended for Jayden Cook (two catches, 37 yards) at the UNH 43, Burke broke open deep along the left sideline and hauled in Brosmer's fourth scoring pass of the day for 57 yards (career-long reception) and a 38-14 lead at 2:09.

FOURTH QUARTER

UNH kept the foot on the accelerator on the first play of the fourth when Laube scampered in for a 7-yard TD for a 45-14 lead at 14:54.
Laube had put the Wildcats in advantageous field position with his 26-yard punt return in the waning moments of the third to start the drive at the SBU 31.
