After two weeks of intramural football, Kappa Sigma had a commanding 2-0 record, posting two 20-12 victories. In the first game, Sigma Tau Gamma came out throwing, with two interceptions on their first two offensive plays. Both were picked off by me, and I also had two other interceptions and two touchdowns, while Justin Laurie picked up the third. Quarterback Darren Duhnke threw all three touchdowns and had only one interception to lead the offense. Dustin Kreider had a long catch to set up a short touchdown catch for me. Lineman Eric Zottola had a stellar game and one of the two-point conversions to clinch the victory. On defense, I had a total of four interceptions and knocked Sigma Tau Gamma’s final prayer of out bounds to end the game.
Chi Phi proved to be a much more dangerous opponent, scoring on their first drive aided by a long quarterback sneak. After failing on the two-point conversion, Chi Phi intercepted the first pass by quarterback Darren Duhnke. Kappa Sig’s defense was able to stop the ensuing drive off an interception by Duhnke on the goal line. Kappa Sigma was then able to drive down the field and, on fourth and long, Duhnke completed the long ball for one of three touchdowns by me; I also had an interception. I did well for Kappa Sig, converting three fourth-down plays. Adam Kulp ’04 played a tremendous game at linebacker, holding the scrambling Chi Phi quarterback to only two big plays, both on the other side of the ball. Dustin Kreider came up big with a touchdown of his own that was called back due to a holding violation. Chi Phi picked off two other passes to make the game interesting, but Kappa Sigma’s defense held tight.
The next game is Thursday, October 23, at the IM fields behind East Halls.
