wOW salisbury winsssssss what a game .. no d for either team but what a game

[Teamski]

Booyeah!  Wesley has defeated its first ever Division I-AA (FCS) team by a victory over Iona by the score of 23-12.  A second half lead-off 31 yard kick-off return by Beavers started things up.  A McSweeney to Scanlon pass for a TD put them up 14-6.   

Iona followed up with a touchdown themselves and then a VERY rare thing happened.  Iona fumbled their 2 point conversion and Eddie Dinisi ran the ball back for 85 yards to give Wesley a 16-12 lead. 

Wesley committed what seems like their second half trademark and fumbled the ball twice.  Also, Blugis uncharactoristically missed 2 VERY short field goals in the game, so the score could of been a lot higher.  Hats off to Aaron Jackson with 100 yards rushing.  McSweeny had over 85 yards rushing as well.  He rocks.   8)

The only issue with the defense was that Iona played a no-huddle offense.  Wesley was sometimes slow to get set up and this created some opportunities for some open recievers.  That said, the defense did really good work out there and did a great job stopping the run.

So, Wesley kicked some arse on the field.  Well done Wolverines!!

Are you still coming to Dover next week? We have about 12 people coming for the Induction Friday. Most are staying over for the game so we'll probably  try and set up a tailgate down there. I'll let you know what to look for

Sounds like you had an exciting game?

wesley picked up a good win today.  they were very sluggish on offense in the first half.  not sure why they were trying to run outside when they had a huge size advantage on the line.  iona's d was very quick to the ball and put pressure on mcsweeney forcing him to run more than was planned leading to his rush total.  in the second half they ran between the tackles and had success.

teamski, you are correct about the no huddle causing wesley trouble making changes.  there is another issue that coach drass will have to fix on defense, the lack of a pass rush.  iona's qb was able to stand around waiting for receivers to get open, fortunately the dbacks did a nice job with coverage.  it did not hurt that iona did not have anyone who could run by the dbacks.

this result leads to a question, was iona's win over delval a fluke or was delvals win over wesley a fluke.  after seeing today's game, i would have to say that both results were flukes.

The question is, did Del Valley beat Wesley, or did Wesley beat Wesley?....I think it was a case of Wesley beating Wesley with 16 penalties and an ample amount of turnovers.  In today's game, Wesley once again reduced penalties to 7 for the game and it showed.  Sure, 2 turnovers didn't help, but their game is tightening up overall.....

I kept losing the online feed today of the radio and I missed the first quarter because I was in an MRI 40 minutes    I am NOT a fan of close spaces and being straped down does NOT help .  Then the lady says we have to do some again

I kept losing the online feed today of the radio or maybe it was my head still thumping fronm 40 minutes in an mri machine    I am NOT a fan of close spaces and being straped down does NOT help . 

We had problems with our phone line today so we kept dropping out, it was frustrating for us too. Hard fought win fro the Wolverines today against a scrappy Iona squad.

Congrats to Salisbury on a great win today after a tough week. Looks like Eric game could be tougher than either the Gulls or Wolverines though. What's the report on them sid?

Good to see the Bobcats back in the win column too!
