Senior running back KEVIN L'ECUYER (Leominster, MA/Leominster) added a career-best 99 rushing yards on 24 carries including a 24-yard scoring scamper with 2:26 left in the first half which gave the Greyhounds the lead for good.

The Greyhounds stopped the Skyhawks with 151 yards total offense . . . 13-for-37 passing for just 92 yards and 31 carries for 59 yards on the ground.

Prince finished with 11 tackles and also forced a fumble. Two series later the Skyhawks got on the board as junior Sean Donahue kicked a career-best 40-yard field goal.

In the final minutes of the half the Hounds drove for the go-ahead score. A 15-yard return of a Donahue punt by sophomore JOEY FABIANO (Westwood, MA/Westwood) set the Hounds up at their own 46. Correia found freshman wide out DAVID CANNEY (Templeton, MA/Narragansett) for 12 yards and then L'Ecuyer rambled for seven yards before scampering the final 24 to the endzone. Tobin's kick made it 7-3 at halftime.

Junior linebacker Thomas Kelleher was superb for the Hawks with 7-7--14 tackles, 1.5 sacks, 1 pressure, 1 forced fumble and 1 fumble recovery.

It would prove to be the first overtime win for the Greyhounds since September 12, 1981 (21-14 over Bentley College) and the same two teams played a 20-20 tie on September 11, 1982. The overtime game was the first since the program turned varsity in 1988.

On the Hounds overtime possession series Davis rushed consecutively for nine, 13 and two yards giving the Hounds a first-and-goal at the one. Breuer scored on the next play for the win.

Assumption College opened the scoring with 6:22 left in the game as wide receiver Anthony Davy caught a 10-yard option pass from Davis to cap an eight play, 44-yard drive. The series was set up following a Milligan interception and 25 yard return to the Hawks' 44. A 21-yard reception to the 12 from Breuer to sophomore tight end JAKE LONGENECKER (Bedford, NH/Manchester West) was the key play in the march. Junior MIKE TOBIN (Woburn, MA/Woburn) kicked to conversion for a 7-0 lead.

Saint Anselm tied the score driving 74 yards in nine plays and scoring with 1:56 remaining. Senior quarterback Shane Dinagen found junior wide out Pat Turner on a 22-yard pass to the Hounds' 35 on a fourth-and-nine play. Sophomore corner MATT KLASKIN (Norfolk, MA/Xaverian) made the touchdown saving tackle. Dinagen then found senior wide out Kevin Lukas for six yards and then connected with senior tailback Mike Donahue on a 29-yard touchdown pass. Garcarz' conversion tied the game at 7-7.

The teams traded interceptions on their final regulation drives with Saint Anselm's junior corner Mark Wysocki picking Breuer at the Hawks 17, while Meccariello intercepted Dinagen and returned it 28 yards to the Hawks 43 (touchdown saving tackle by junior tackle Robert Flynn.
