Edinboro overcomes deficit, beats Seton Hill

Edinboro once again found themselves trailing late in a game, but were able to rally for a win, 42-34, against Seton Hill.

“I’m just so proud of their fight,” said head coach Justin Lustig.

“I’m really proud of this coaching staff, working hard and putting in long hours and the players are really responding.”

Seton Hill struck first with a 12-yard pass from quarterback Christian Strong to wide receiver Norman Darden. It took Edinboro all of 45 seconds to respond, with a 60-yard pass from Jake Sisson to T’Naz Gregory. Gregory was on a crossing route and snatched the pass right out of the air. Then Gregory turned on the jets and was gone for the touchdown.

The next two scores would belong to Seton Hill. They scored on a 1-yard run from Khalil Howard and a 37-yard run from Michael Elardo.

With 5:54 left to go in the first quarter, Edinboro would find the end zone on a 1-yard pass from Sisson to Jordan Williams. Seton Hill would answer with another 1-yard run from Howard.

Sisson would find a streaking Alex Caratelli on a 72-yard pass. Caratelli beat the coverage across the middle as a defender fell trying to catch him. Caratelli would all but walk into the end zone untouched for six.

It would take until the 7:46 mark of the third quarter for Seton Hill to score again. Strong would find Norman for a 30-yard touchdown.

This would be their final score of the game. Edinboro would respond just three minutes later with a Walter Fletcher 1-yard run for six.
