Johnson and Teats lead Football to road win at Seton Hill

Nagle throws for three scores as the Bald Eagles end a three-game skid

GREENSBURG, Pa. - Ezequiel Johnson and Tucker Teats each ran for more than 100 yards and Carson Nagle threw for three scores as Lock Haven (5-5, 4-3 PSAC) came from behind to upend Seton Hill by a 28-23 score on Saturday afternoon in Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) football action.

Johnson carried 15 times for 118 yards, the most by a Lock Haven player in a game in two seasons. Teats added 109 yards on 15 carries. The win for the Bald Eagles ended a three-game skid. Johnson and Teats both crossing the century mark on the ground marks the first time the Bald Eagles have had two players rush for 100 yards in a game since 2016 when John Ford (206), Corey Blakey (111), and Caleb Walton (101) each crossed the century mark against East Stroudsburg.

Seton Hill (4-6, 3-4 PSAC) took the early lead. Boden St Marie hit Jayden Llanos for a 44-yard touchdown on the Griffins' second possession. Lock Haven answered with a methodical 16-play, 75-yard drive that took 8:20 off the clock and ended with a 3-yard Teats run to knot the game up at a 7-7- tally.

Ahmad Ward's 1-yard run with 1:48 left in the second quarter put Seton Hill up 14-7 at the half.

The Bald Eagles took over after that. Nagle found Teats on a 19-yard touchdown pass on the third play of the second half to cap off a five-play, 75-yard drive to tie the game at 14 each.

Lock Haven went ahead 21-14 on Nagle's 9-yard touchdown strike to Jake Roberts with 7:17 left in the third. Nagle finished 13 of 27 for 130 yards and three touchdowns.

Seton Hill closed the gap to 21-17 on a 36-yard field goal from Rayyan Bataineh early in the fourth quarter but that was as close as the host Griffins would get.

Jay Von Tucker-Scott returned the ensuing kickoff 47 yards, and Nagle hit Wayne Love for a 16-yard score with 8:39 left to put the Bald Eagles ahead, 28-17.

The Griffins didn't go away. St Marie threw a nine-yard strike to Kai Holmes with 4:41 remaining, but Llanos' pass on the 2-point try failed as the Bald Eagles led 28-23 in the waning minutes of the game.

Lock Haven moved to the Seton Hill 37 on its next possession, but the Griffins took over on downs with 2:03 left. Troy Miller then intercepted St Marie at the Lock Haven 25 with 1:18 to play to seal the win.

Rocco Daugherty led the defense with nine tackles while Martin Wantong chipped in two sacks on the afternoon.
