Despite 4 turnovers, Lafayette tops Fordham 27-14

EASTON, Pa. -- Ross Scheuerman rushed for 169 yards and two touchdowns to lead Lafayette to a 27-14 win over Fordham on Saturday. After Peter Maetzold 's 34-yard touchdown pass to Brian Wetzel cut Lafayette's lead to 10-7 with 10:38 remaining in the first half, the Leopards (4-6, 3-1 Patriot League) rattled off 17 straight points, including a pair of 2-yard touchdown runs by Scheuerman, to put the game out of reach. Lafayette rushed 245 yards as a team, averaging six yards per carry and dominated the time of possession, holding the ball for nearly 35 minutes. Fordham (10-1) came into the game averaging 39.1 points per game but was held to a season-low 14 points thanks, in large part, to its five turnovers. The Rams have now committed 10 turnovers in their last two games. Drew Reed , who completed 17 of 32 passes for 239 yards and one TD, threw four interceptions.
