Villanova holds off Stony Brook 16-13 in Colonial opener
STONY BROOK, N.Y. (AP) Daniel Smith passed for 237 yards with a 49-yard touchdown to Rayjoun Pringle, and Villanova held off a second-half push from Stony Brook, recovering an onside kick to eke out a 16-13 win on Saturday.
The Wildcats jumped out to a 13-0 lead by halftime in the opener of the Colonial Athletic Association six-game spring season, but the difference was a Cole Bunce 38-yard field goal.
The Seawolves' Anthony Del Negro blocked a punt late in the fourth quarter, which was recovered by Oniel Stanbury at the 13 with 3:29 left to play. Four plays later Jaden Cook scored from the 2 and the Seawolves trailed 16-13.
Stony Brook's onside kick was recovered by Villanova's Christian Benford at the 15. A penalty on first down allowed the Wildcats to run out the clock.
Jalen Jackson rushed for a 1-yard TD for Villanova's first score.
Stony Brook got on the board in the third quarter with a 7-yard keeper around the left side of the line by Tyquell Fields, capping a 62-yard drive.
