WORCESTER, Mass. --- Junior running back HERBERT WOODARD (Bridgeton, NJ/Salem) rushed 17 times for 163 yards and four touchdowns leading the Greyhounds past Saint Anselm College, 45-12, in Northeast-10 Conference football here Saturday at Grappone Stadium. Woodard scampered 64 yards on the Hounds' first play from scrimmage to tie the game and later scored from three, one and 38 yards to pace his team to its third straight win. The Greyhounds are now 5-2 overall and 4-1 in the conference.

In the process, he became the Greyhound varsity career rushing leader with 2,431 yards passing Hall of Famer Fran DeFalco '94 (2,289 yards) and the 'club' leader Rich Dandini '89, who finished with 2,335 yards. He is the first to have ten career 100-yard rushing games (5 this year), tied DeFalco for the most rushing touchdowns (29) in a career and his 192 career points are just 12 points short of DeFalco's career mark of 204.

Next week the Greyhounds will travel to Bentley University, a 28-27 winner over Pace with kickoff slated for 2 p.m. The Falcons are 5-1 in conference action tied with Southern Connecticut for first place, while Assumption and Merrimack are right behind at 4-1. The game will have special significance in the regional poll and in final determination of possible N.C.A.A. aspirations.

Saint Anselm started quickly in this game as sophomore Marc Wilson returned the opening kickoff 92 yards for a touchdown. The conversion kick failed leaving the Hawks in front 6-0. The Greyhounds, or rather Woodard, wasted no time as he rambled 64-yards on his first carry to tie the game after just 30 seconds. Sophomore CORY KEMPS (Carmel, IN/Carmel) kicked the conversion to give the Greyhounds the lead, 7-6.

Sophomore PAUL PEREZ (Brooklyn, NY/Xaverian) returned a punt 19 yards to the Saint Anselm 23 to set up the next Greyhound score. Junior quarterback ANDREW KUPEC (Wyckoff, NJ/Indian Hills) found junior wide receiver JOHN BARKER (Avon, MA/Xaverian) for 22 yards on the second play setting up Woodard's three-yard burst up-the-middle for the touchdown. Kemps conversion made it 14-6.

A 28-yard return by Perez to the Saint Anselm 33 set up Kemps for a season- and career-best 45-yard field goal---the second longest in Greyhound history. Jon Eisele '08 kicked a 49-yarder to beat LaSalle University (10/27/07).

Saint Anselm drove 73 yards in 10 plays early in the second period only to have senior middle linebacker DUSTIN ZITZMANN (Pinellas Park, FL/Dixie Hollins) stuff Wilson for no gain on a fourth-down-and-one at the Hounds' 11. Assumption then drove 89 yards in 13 plays to make it 24-6.

Woodard carried eight times for 38 yards including the final yard for the score. Kupec found junior wide receiver MARK GATELY (Waltham, MA/Waltham) for 34 yards to move the ball to the Hawk's 47.

Saint Anselm drove 86 yards in eight plays on its next series only to have Zitzmann again stymie the process forcing a fumble subsequently recovered by sophomore defensive end KEVIN PICKETTE (Burlington, MA/Burlington). Just before halftime, junior defensive tackle MICHAEL FOLEY (Holden, MA/Saint John's) stopped the Hawks with a quarterback sack and eight-yard loss.

The Greyhounds came out fast the second half driving 53 yards in 10 plays to make it 31-6. Kupec rushed for 18 yards, including a five-yard keeper for the score, and converted three third-down plays to highlight the march.

After a short punt and another return by Perez, this one for 16 yards to the Saint Anselm 38, the Hounds were in business again. After an incomplete pass Woodard scampered 38 yards for his fourth TD. Kemps conversion made it 38-6.

On the ensuing kickoff junior LANCE MITCHELL (Boynton Beach, FL/Pope John II) stripped Wilson and returned it 20 yards for a touchdown. It was the first fumble returned for a touchdown since linebacker Gino Meccariello '06 returned one against American International (10/08/2005). Kemps' conversion made it 45-6 --two scores in 10 seconds!

Wilson struck back however racing 70 yards to the Greyhound 20 on the next kickoff. Freshman quarterback Michael Pierce found junior wide receiver Marcel Bouie on the first play for the lone Saint Anselm offensive touchdown. Pierce's pass for two-points went awry.

LAST YEARS GAME: junior placekicker Tyler McNamara kicked a 31-yard field goal with 3:11 left to cap the comeback as Bentley edged the Greyhounds (22-19) in Waltham. The Hounds moved to a 19-0 first-period lead as wide receiver Dominique Price and sophomore quarterback JOSH RATACIK (Manchester, NH/Central) became the first duo in Assumption College football history to combine for two touchdown passes of more than 70 yards in a game.

Bentley drove 62 yards in seven plays for the game-winning points. A 49-yard pass from quarterback Bryant Johnson to wide receiver John Studley to the Assumption 21 set up the score. Studley finished with 11 receptions for 97 yards. Hounds' junior defensive back BERNARD SCOTT (St. Petersburg, FL/Admiral Farragut) made a touchdown saving tackle. Junior linebacker COLIN MIYADI (Concord, CA/Berean Christian) made two keys stops to force the field goal attempt.

In the first period, Ratacik connected with Price on the first play of the game from 74 yards to give the Greyhounds a very quick 6-0 lead.

Ratacik who completed six-of-nine passes for team-record 207 yards in the first period also threw a 31-yard touchdown pass to senior wide out JOEY FABIANO (Westwood, MA/Westwood) and then finished the period with an 83-yard heave to Price who eluded several defenders en route to the end zone.

The Greyhounds struck again with 5:27 left in the quarter driving 59 yards in just five plays with Ratacik finding Fabiano on a 31-yard scoring strike for a 12-0 lead. An offside penalty on the Falcons on a crucial third-down play, a Ratacik-to Price nine-yard pass play and an eight-yard burst by sophomore running back HERBERT WOODARD (Salem, NJ/Salem) highlighted the short drive.

On the next possession Ratacik found Price on a deep sideline pattern and former Holy Name standout circled back toward the middle eluding several tacklers for the score. Zack Okolowitcz kicked the conversion for a 19-0 advantage.

Hounds' defensive back Nate Kuffrey stopped a Falcons' drive picking off a Bentley quarterback John White pass and returning to the 24.

A bad snap on a punt attempt led to the first Falcons points as Hound punter Greg Nowak ran out of the endzone for the safety with 9:50 left in the half.

The Falcons would drive 26 yards in six plays capped by a McNamara 31-yard field goal with 3:51 left in the half. Bentley scored in the third period as fullback Matt Welch capped an eight-play, 47-yard drive with a five-yard burst up-the middle. McNamara's conversion made it 19-12.
Studley caught an 11-yard scoring pass from Johnson and McNamara's conversion point tied it at 19-19 with 7:38 left. Bentley defensive back Chris Carroll intercepted Ratacik at the 35 and returned it 30 yards to the Assumption 35 to set up the score. Johnson connected with Kyle Tuthill and with Rowe for 10 yards to highlight the drive.

A last drive by the Greyhounds was stymied as defensive back Don Hopkins intercepted at the 19.

Greyhound Freshman National Youth-of-the-Year
The Boys & Girls Club of America has named Assumption College freshman student-athlete CAROLINA CORREA (Pawtucket, RI/Charles Shea) the National Youth-of-the-Year. Correa will serve a one-year term as the national teen spokesperson for the 4.5 million youth served annually by Boys & Girls Clubs. She is the first Hispanic female youth to receive the title.

A projected psychology major, she will receive $26,000 in college scholarships from the program's founding sponsor, Reader's Digest Foundation. The Youth-of the-Year program recognizes outstanding contributions to a member's family, school, community and Boys & Girls Club; academic excellence, and personal challenges and obstacles overcome.

Correa was graduated from Charles E. Shea High School, where she mentored freshmen and was a tutor. She was nominated to the City of Pawtucket's Teen Hall of Fame, received the Rhode Island Presidential Student-of-the-Year Award and was inducted into the National Honor Society of High School Scholars. She also graduated in the top three percent of her class.

She is a seven-year member of the Boys & Girls Club program. At her local club, she learned English, made many friends and excelled in the aquatics program. A member of the women's swimming and diving team for Coach Peter Vellis, she was a three-time Most Valuable Swimmer for Coach three times in high school and created a basic swimming skills program for inner city youth, among other community service projects. Her specific speciality is the backstroke.

ABOUT THE PROGRAM: in Boys & Girls Clubs around the world, caring staff members encourage and support the members they serve. Through this nurturing environment, many develop sound character, leadership abilities and the willingness to give back to their community. These are the qualities that make a Youth-of-the-Year. They are also some of the most important qualities young people need to realize their full potential as productive, responsible and caring citizens.

The National Youth-of-the-Year program, Boys & Girls Clubs of America's premier character and leadership initiative, recognizes outstanding contributions to a Club member's family, school, community and Boys & Girls Club: as well as personal challenges and obstacles overcome.
Participants are chosen on local and state levels, culminating with five regional winners meeting in Washington, D.C., to compete for the National Youth-of-the Year honor.

Since the program's inception in 1947, each National Youth-of-the-Year has met with the President of the United States to formally accept the award and begin a one-year term as the teen spokesperson for all Boys & Girls Club members. The young people who earn recognition as Youth-of-the-Year are living proof that Boys & Girls Clubs work. Indeed, there is no stronger testimony that Clubs are truly "The Positive Place for Kids."
