Harris leads Scots


Staff Report

SHIPPENSBURG — Edinboro quarterback Trevor Harris threw three touchdown passes and ran for another Saturday to lead Edinboro to a 34-11 win over Shippensburg in non-conference football at Seth Grove Stadium.

Harris completed 20-of-36 for 224 yards. The junior did not throw an interception and was sacked once for a loss of two yards.

“He played a tremendous game,” Edinboro coach Scott Browning said. “He threw the ball well for the conditions. He managed things reall well.”

Edinboro tailback Houston Brown led all rushers with 117 yards on 24 carries.

A steady and driving rain made the ball slippery and the grass field treacherous, Browning said. Shippensburg fumbled nine times, losing it a school-record seven times, while Edinboro also struggled to hold onto the ball, fumbling six times and losing possession five times.

“Most of those were center quarterback exchanges,” Browning said.

The Red Raiders turned the ball over an their first play from scrimmage, but Edinboro was unable to capitalize and turned it back over to Ship on downs five plays later on its own 30-yard line.

The Red Raiders drove to the Edinboro 3. Edinboro’s Hardin Moss sacked Ship quarterback Chad DiFebbo for a 5-yard loss on 3rd-and-goal from the 4. Ship settled for a field goal and a 3-0 lead with 9:18 left in the first quarter.

The Scots fumbled on their next possession, but took over after that.

Harris rumbled 33 yards on a third-and-1 play to put the Scots up 7-3. On the Scots next possession they went 61 yards on eight plays, capped by a Harris to Denayne Dixon 10-yard pass for a 14-3 lead with 14:51 left in the first half.

Edinboro delivered a staggering blow by scoring with a minute left in the first half to take a 21-3 lead. Harris hit Rich Cerro for a 35-yard touchdown one play after the ’Boro recovered a fumble.

“That was a big turn of events in our favor ... that score that got us to 21,” Browing said.

Although the Scots were never in jeopardy in the second half, they were inconsistent. The Scots punted on four second-half possessions, fumbled two others and turned the ball over on downs once.

Browning said the weather was a factor.

“The longer the game went the more the weather affected the game,” Browning said. “It was really sloppy at the end. It slowed everybody down.”
