Lafayette's 2nd-half eruption sends it to first Patriot League title since '13 by drubbing Lehigh
BETHLEHEM, Pa. (AP) Dean DeNobile threw for three scores and Jamar Curtis rushed for three scores and Lafayette beat Lehigh 49-21 on Saturday to clinch the Patriot League title and secure an FCS playoff berth.
The Leopards (9-2, 5-1) hold the tiebreaker over Holy Cross (7-4, 5-1) by virtue of their 38-35 win over the Crusaders on Oct. 21. Lafayette clinched its first title since the 2013 season.
The scrappy Mountain Hawks (2-9, 1-5) built a 21-14 halftime lead before Lafayette seized control with a five-touchdown second half.
In succession, DeNobile threw a 13-yard scoring pass to Dallas Holmes and Curtis ran for a 4-yard score in the third quarter. In the final stanza, DeNobile threw an 18-yard score to Chris Carasia, and Curtis ran for touchdowns of 9 and 46 yards.
DeNobile was 19-for-27 passing for 245 yards. Curtis had 27 carries for 166 yards.
Dante Perri threw for 116 yards and two scores and Jack DiPietro ran for 62 yards and rushed for a touchdown for Lehigh.
