UMass pulls away

Football
Jeremy Rice

UMass 19, Towson 10

Wide receiver Rasheed Rancher ran off with the ball in second quarter, and helped the Minutemen run off with the lead. On a third-and-three play from the Towson 35, Coen hit Rancher on the left side of the field on a skinny post.

Rancher bobbled the pass, which was well out in front of him, but made a one-handed catch, turned upfield and scampered to the pylon for six.

UMass and Towson have combined for 327 passing yards in the first half. The Tigers recorded just six total yards rushing thus far.

There were only two punts (one for each team) through two quarters.

More from the Press Box after the third quarter.
