LOCK HAVEN, Pa. – The Lock Haven University football team (1-5, 1-1 PSAC East) fell to visiting Millersville University (2-4, 2-1 PSAC East), 24-6, today in Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) Eastern Division action.
The Marauders jumped out to a 24-0 lead and despite a late rally from the Bald Eagles that produced a touchdown with 4:53 to play, Millersville hung on to secure the PSAC East win.
After a scoreless first quarter, Millersville scored 10 second-quarter points and led 10-0 at halftime. Trailing 24-0,
Tavian Dorsey (Hanover, Pa./Delone Catholic) put Lock Haven on the board. Dorsey's 7-yard TD run made it 24-6 as the Bald Eagles' 2-point conversion try failed. LHU was hoping to continue the rally, but the ensuing on-side kick attempt was recovered by Millersville.
