WORCESTER, Mass. --- Freshman running back HERB WOODARD (Salem, NJ/Salem)
scored a touchdown on a four-year run with 1:55 remaining to lift Assumption
College past L.I.U.-C.W. Post, 31-24, in a Northeast-10 Conference football
game here FRIDAY.
The Greyhounds, in winning for the first time in nine meetings with C.W. Post
moved to a seemingly comfortable 17-3 halftime lead only to have the Pioneers
scored two unanswered touchdowns in the third period to tie the game at 17-17.
Pioneers quarterback Nick Georgetti completed 12-of-12 passes to set up a pair
of Paul Jennings' touchdown runs of two and five yards.
The Greyhounds travel
to Pace University SATURDAY in their season's final . . . kickoff is scheduled
for 12 noon. The game will be webcast by NE-10 TV. Fans can access the broadcast,
and also LIVESTATS, by going to the web site at www.assumptiongreyhounds.com
In the process,
junior quarterback TAYLOR HUMPHREY (Lafayette, CA/Miramonte) continued
to rewrite the Hounds' record book. He has now completed a record 162 passes
in 303 attempts (second most to Chad Carges' 305 in 2000) for
2,122 yards to become the first Greyhound to pass for over 2,000 yards in a
single season. He also became the first with over 2,000 yards of total offense...
now at 2,177 yards with a game remaining Saturday at Pace.
Also, the Greyhounds' dynamic
pass catching duo of senior JAKE BEERS (Duxbury, MA/Duxbury) (48 receptions,
603 yards) and sophomore DAVID CANNEY (Templeton, MA/Narragansett)
(58 receptions, 846 yards) continued its record book revisions. Canney is now
just eight yards short of John McKeon's record of 854 yards
(club years) set in 1976. Beers is the second wide out with two seasons over
600 yards and three over 500 yards.
MATYSIAK,
BLAISDELL lead Hounds' soccer all-stars
Senior goalkeeper/captain
LAUREN MATYSIAK (Holden, MA/Wachusett) capped off her career by being
named the Northeast-10 Conference Goalkeeper-of the-Year for the third time
in her illustrious career. Matysiak, who owns the Greyhounds' record book finished
with 76 games (first), 6970 minutes (first), 0.94 goals-against average (first),
39 wins (first) and 30 shutouts (first). This past season her 1.16 goals-against
average in 16 games was among the conference leaders. She was named a first-team
all-star for the third time (2004, 05, 07).
On the men's side freshman
forward STEPHEN BLAISDELL (Peabody, MA/Bishop Fenwick) was named the
Northeast-10 Conference Freshman-of-the Year and a second-team all-star. Blaisdell
led the Greyhounds with seven goals, six assists for 20 points. He was named
to the weekly honor twice.
Sophomore defender KELLEY
DEWALT (Londonderry, NH/Londonderry) (1 goal, 2 points) of the women's team
and junior forward/captain PAUL MURPHY (Wilbraham, MA/Minnechaug) (9
goals, 1 assist, 19 points) and sophomore defender/captain AUSTIN PRETE
(Glastonbury, CT/Glastonbury) (3 goals, 6 points) from the men's team all earned
third-team honors.
On defense, sophomore middle
linebacker DUSTIN ZITZMANN (Pinellas Park, FL/Dixie Hollins, FL)
joined the 200-tackle club (205)---the first sophomore to reach that total in
Hounds' history. With his 4-9--13 tackle performance to lead the team he now
has 36-65-101 tackles this season (second in the conference) . . . he led the
Northeast-10 last year with 40-64--104 tackles becoming the first to reach triple
figures as a first-year player. He is now the first with over 100 tackles in
each of his first two seasons.
In addition, senior defensive
end JARED KELLY (Canton, MA/Xaverian) (87-108--195) and junior
safety CHRIS MARTINO (Lincroft, NJ/Middletown South) (98-97--195)
are approaching the 200-tackle mark. Martino also needs just two initial hits
for 100 in his career, while Kelly's 25 pressures and his 46.0 tackles for-loss
are both the seventh-best in Hounds' history. He also has 25.0 quarterback sacks
(third-best) just two behind the career mark set by Brian Gordon (2001-04).
Brother JOSH KELLY (Canton, MA/Xaverian) had two to increase his career
mark to 21.0 (tied for fifth)---the only brother combo both over 20.0 for a
career. The Quinns (Andy '98 and Tom '01) finished with 36.0 between them.
On the second series the
Greyhounds drove 59 yards in six plays. Woodard started with a seven-yard run
off-right tackle, Humphrey connected with Beers for 13 yards, to freshman tight
end ERIC SCHINDLER (Kenilworth, NJ/Brearley) for 43 yards, to
freshman wide receiver DOMINIQUE PRICE (Worcester, MA/Holy Name)
for eight yards and finally eight more to Beers for the touchdown on an acrobatic
catch in the back corner of the end zone. Senior placekicker JON EISELE
(Lower Gwynedd, PA/Vermont Academy) kicked the conversion.
After the Pioneers stopped
the Hounds on a fourth-down play as tackle Peter Corrigan stuffed freshman MATT
SIDEBOTTOM (Franklin, MA/Franklin). Georgetti then completed five-of-six
passes for 39 yards to set up an Andrew Kroell 47-yard field goal.
Senior cornerback MIKE
MOONAN (West Seneca, NY/West Seneca West) picked off Georgetti and sped
45 yards for a touchdown with 5:07 left in the half. Eisele's conversion made
it 14-3 Greyhounds. After a short punt the Greyhounds moved in for another score---a
31-yard field goal by Eisele. Two Humphrey rushes for nine and 16 yards (the
second on a third-down play) highlighted the drive to make it 17-3.
The Pioneers came out flying
in the third period with Georgetti leading the way. He completed five straight
passes---four to senior wide receiver CHRIS BONE (Inwood, NY/Lawrence)
for 30 yards. Jennings capped the eight-play, 58-yard drive with a two-yard
dive for the score. Kroell kicked the conversion.
After stopping the Greyhounds,
the Pioneers drove 75 yards in seven plays to tie the game. Georghetti completed
five straight passes (three to Bone for 31 yards) before Jennings scampered
15 yards and then five for the score. Kroell's conversion made it 17-17. Georgetti
was 13-for-13 in the period!
Two series later the Greyhounds
struck quickly as Humphrey fired a 62-yard strike to Canney for a score (Eisele
kicked the conversion). Georghetti then got it right back with three straight
completions . . . 34 yards to wide out Vaughn Dixon, 11 to running back Joe
Dickson and finally 47 more to Dixon for the score. Kroell's conversion made
it 24-24. The game then came down to each team having one last drive. The Greyhounds
drove 74 yards in 11 plays to take the lead and then took turns at making big
defensive plays to hold off C.W. Post.
Humphrey connected with
junior wide receiver JOEY FABIANO (Westwood, MA/Westwood) on a 39-yard
pass down-the-middle to the Post 16. With the Greyhounds on the seven-yard line,
thanks to a Woodard seven-yard scamper, and lining up a 24-yard field goal to
get the lead, Post was guilty of a too many-men-on-the-field penalty giving
the Hounds a first-and-goal inside the five. Woodard scored on second down from
four yards out. Eisele's conversion gave the Hounds a seven-point cushion.
Post then came back down
the field. Georghetti completed two quick passes to Dickson for nine and seven
yards and then a third for 10 yards to wide out Sheldon Nunn.
On a third-and-six play
from the Assumption 32, freshman safety KEITH BATES (Holden, MA/Wachusett)
leveled Dickson at the 10-yard line for a incompletion. Georghetti then found
Dickson for six yards and a measurement for a first down. A big Zitzmann hit
kept him from breaking it for six points.
The Kelly brothers, Jared
and Josh, then combined to stop Georghetti on a keeper. Moonan made a touchdown
saving deflection at the five and senior cornerback MATT KLASKIN (Norfolk,
MA/Xaverian) tipped the next pass away at the two with the Kelly brothers harassing
Georghetti on the final play of the drive.

LAST YEAR'S GAME: Assumption
19, Pace 0
WORCESTER, Mass. --- Assumption College's defense was the story of the game
as the Greyhounds stopped Pace University, 19-0, in a Northeast-10 Conference
football game here SATURDAY. The Greyhounds limited the Setters to 56 total
yards overall (a record minus 38 yards rushing).
Freshman linebacker DUSTIN
ZITZMANN (Pinellas Park, FL/Dixie Hollins) led all tacklers with 3-6--9
tackles to become the first freshman in Hounds varsity history to record over
100 tackles. Zitzmann, who finished with 40-64--104 tackles, led the conference
in that department. Senior defensive end JARED KELLY (Canton, MA/Xaverian)
finished with two quarterback sacks (career high nine for the season) and two
pressures (20 for the season).
Offensively, senior running
back Kevin L'Ecuyer (Leominster, MA/Leominster) rushed 28 times for 94
yards and one touchdown, while senior placekicker Mike Tobin (Woburn,
MA/Woburn) kicked two field goals.
Junior wide receiver JAKE
BEERS (Duxbury, MA/Duxbury) caught seven passes for 109 yards and a touchdown.
He finished the season with 51 receptions-- a new Greyhounds' single-season
mark---for 685 yards (fourth-best in Hounds history).
The Greyhounds opened the
scoring in the second period converting a blocked punt into a L'Ecuyer one-yard
touchdown slant. Sophomore CHRIS MARTINO (Lindcroft, NJ/Middletown South)
blocked the punt recovered by sophomore defensive tackle TERRY STANFORD
(Ridgefield Park, NJ/Ridgefield Park) at the Setter 33.
The Hounds would convert
two third-down plays into first downs---on a freshman running back LAMMAR
CASH (West Haven, CT/Notre Dame) four yard off-tackle run and a junior tight
end JAKE LONGENECKER (Fernandina, FL/Manchester West) eight-yard reception
over-the-middle. Tobin kicked the conversion.
In the third period they
drove 56 yards in five plays after a 12-yard punt return by sophomore JOEY
FABIANO (Westwood, MA/Westwood). Tharpe completed passes of 14 yards to
Longenecker, 11 yards to freshman wide receiver DAVID CANNEY (Templeton,
MA/North Middlesex) and, finally, for 29 yards to Beers for the score.
The Greyhounds Tobin kicked
two field goals in the fourth period. They drove 56 yards in 12 plays with senior
quarterback Joe Correia (Melrose, MA/St. John's Prep) completing two
passes to Beers for 14 and 29 yards---both on third-down plays and L'Ecuyer
scampering 14 yards to the Pace four. Tobin kicked a 21-yard field goal to cap
the drive. Following an interception by cornerback Jason Vega, Tobin
kicked a second field goal from 30 yards.

offensive glass. Guard Jerome Dyson added 18 points and five steals.
The Huskies despite a definite height advantage were never able to pull away
from the Greyhounds. Connecticut did enjoy a 60-39 advantage on the boards,
but the Greyhounds (.410) outshot the Huskies (.390) from the floor. The Huskies
decided advantage at the free throw line proved decisive as they made 22-of-34
attempts, while the Greyhounds were limited to six-of-10.

forward MIKE FOTI (Franklin, MA/Franklin). Dyson then his a long three-pointer,
followed with a lane jumper and then an emphatic dunk to put the Huskies back
in command 77-56.
A tip in by Diethorn, a
free throw by senior forward GREG TWOMEY (Groton, MA/Groton-Dunstable)
and baseline jumper by junior guard MITCH BAJEMA (Whitinsville, MA/Whitinsville
Christian) cut it to 77-61 with 6:45 left. After Dyson made the first of a one-and-one
for UConn, Bluford hit a layin on a feed from Shea to make it a 15-point game,
78-63.
Stanley Robinson then made
an inside move for a hoop and with 5:19 remaining Price connected on both ends
of a one-and-one to make it a 19-point deficit, 82-63.
Shea and Diethorn made
three-pointers and senior forward ALEX POPP (Wilmington, MA/Wilmington)
scored off an offensive rebound sandwiched around Dyson three-pointer to make
it 85-71 wirh 3:38 left. Three-pointers by Bluford and Baldarelli cut the deficit
