Sherden leads Luther past Beavers
Posted: Sunday, October 14, 2007
DECORAH, Iowa -- Tyler Sherden rushed for a school-record 269 yards while leading Luther to a 25-22 Iowa Intercollegiate Athletic Conference football win over Buena Vista Saturday at Carlson Stadium.
Sherden, who scored on a two-yard run in the first quarter, broke the old mark of 263 yards set by Brad Hustad in 1957 against Upper Iowa. Sherden entered the game averaging 112.8 yards rushing and hiked his season touchdown total to seven.
Buena Vista (2-4, 1-4 IIAC) scored the game's next two touchdowns, both in the second quarter. Quarterback Chris Hawkins, who threw a school-record six touchdown passes in last Saturday's 42-7 win over Cornell, threw a four-yard scoring pass to Cody Pierce. Then, the Beavers took a 14-8 lead on Cody Donscheski's five-yard touchdown run.
Luther (3-3, 3-2) got a 33-yard field goal from Tyler Pease 22 seconds before halftime, then outscored the Beavers 14-0 in the third quarter. Marcus Hendrickson's 49-yard interception return with three seconds left in the frame gave the Norse a 25-14 lead.
Hawkins completed 17 of 27 passes for 208 yards. The native of Platte City, Mo., has now thrown for 5,372 yards in his career and is 273 yards shy of tying the school record of 5,645 held by Mike Wilson, who played from 1987-90.
Donscheski rushed 21 times for 94 yards. Steven Maguire had four catches for 69 yards.
Cody Pierce and Ben Hansen each recorded 15 tackles while Todd Schwartz added 14. Jared Boysen had 11 tackles for Buena Vista, which will host Loras College next Saturday, starting at 1 p.m. at J. Leslie Robbins Stadium.
