WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. -- In a game that delighted the packed stands of brand new Farley-Lamb Field, the Williams College Ephs (1-0) blanked the Bowdoin College Polar Bears (0-1) by a score of 36-0 on Saturday.

 

The Ephs displayed facility with both the rush and pass offense: quarterback Austin Lommen, a transfer from Boston College, went 18-27 for 184 yards and running back Alex Scyocurka rushed for 128 yards on 19 carries. Eight of Lommen's completions were to his high school teammate Steven Kiesel, who recorded 62 yards receiving.

 

Williams opened the scoring on their second drive of the game with an impressive 8-play march of 65 yards to the endzone. After a beautiful 21-yard pass from Lommen to WR Darrias Sime, Scyocurka capped the drive with a 15-yard run untouched into the end zone.

 

After neither team was able to score on their next possession, Bowdoin started a drive on their own four yard line. However, Polar Bear quarterback Mac Caputi's second pass of the drive was picked off by Williams DB Taysean Scott after bouncing off the helmet of receiver Daniel Barone, and Scott was able to find an easy route to the end zone. Joe Mallock missed the PAT, making the score 13-0.

 

The Ephs forced Bowdoin to punt on their ensuing possession, and returner Tom Cabarle took it 27 yards, giving the Williams offense excellent field position on the Bowdoin 27-yard line. On the first play of the drive, Ephs QB Austin Lommen connected with WR Colin Brown on a well-run post route, moving the Ephs up to the 3. Two plays later, Jean Luc Etienne punched it in for the score, putting Williams up 19-0 following another missed extra point.

 

Scyocurka scored on a 33-yard run in the third quarter, and Lommen hooked up with Jean Luc Etienne for a 34-yard scoring strike. Joseph Mallock capped the scoring with a 28-yard field goal.

 

Williams hosts Trinity next Saturday.
