Led by sophomore running back
Brandon Coleman, the Columbia Raiders won convincingly 40-15 over the Fairview Warriors.
The match-up featured the two teams at the top of the Stripes Division of the Patriot Athletic Conference. With the win the Raiders (7-2, 4-0 PAC) are one win away from their 5th straight Stripes Division crown. The Warriors fall to 3-6 and 3-1 in the PAC.
Columbia raced out to a 21-0 lead in the 2nd quarter courtesy of Coleman's 5 TD run,
Austin Sahlica 60 interception return and
Lance Boise TD catch from quarterback
Cody Schwartz.
Fairview got on the board when
Josh Filkill found
John McQuate along the Columbia sideline, then took it back toward the middle of the field and outraced the Columbia defense to the endzone. The Warriors was successful on their two point conversion when Filkill's jump pass was complete to a wide open
Ryan Grealis.
On the next play from scrimmage, Fairview's
Jack Provenza intercepted Schwartz and ran 35 yards to paydirt to get the Warriors closer 21-15 going into halftime.
After the break, Columbia took control of the game with two Coleman TD runs in the 3rd quarter. The first covered 70 yards in six plays and the second covered 41 yards in seven plays. All but one play were Coleman runs. After Fairview punted, Columbia put the game away. With Coleman on the bench,
Mike Jacobucci took over at running back and then Schwartz threw his 2nd touchdown of the game finding Sahlica on and out route and turning upfield for a 59 yard touchdown.
Coleman finished with 245 yards rushing on 20 carries for a whooping 10 plus yards per attempt.
