MILLERSVILLE, Pa. – Three Kutztown University running backs rushed for more than 100 yards for the first time in school history on Saturday as Kutztown rushed for 383 yards and five touchdowns in a 54-7 win over Millersville University in a Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) Eastern Division game from Chryst Field at Biemesderfer Stadium.
 
Terry Williams (West Orange, N.J./Cosby (Phoenix College)), James Wah Jr. (Whitehall, Pa./Whitehall) and Darrell Scott (Douglassville, Pa./Daniel Boone) all eclipsed the 100-yard mark and combined for 332 of Kutztown's 383 rushing yards and all five of its rushing touchdowns. It is the most rushing yards as a team for Kutztown since it ran for 384 at Saint Anselm in 2011.
 
Williams led the way with 126 yards on 12 carries. He scored two touchdowns, one week after scoring four against Cheyney last week. He gave Kutztown a 20-0 lead early in the second quarter with a two-yard TD run, and capped Saturday's scoring with a 65-yard dash midway through the fourth quarter. It is the longest rush by a Golden Bear this season. Williams ran for a career-high 180 yards last week, marking the first KU back to run for 100 yards in consecutive games since Robbie Frey in 2011.
 
Wah Jr. notched his first career 100-yard game with a career-high 104-yard performance and a touchdown. He and Scott each carried the ball a team-high 17 times, as Scott finished with 102 yards a three total touchdowns (two rushing, one receiving).
 
Kutztown built its lead up to 47-0 late in the third quarter to extend its consecutive points streak to 121 after a 74-0 win over Cheyney last week. It also held its opponents scoreless for seven straight quarters before Millersville snapped the streak with a touchdown run five minutes into the fourth quarter.
 
The offense was committed to the run throughout Saturday's divisional tilt, accounting for 383 of the team's 479 total yards. KU held advantages in first downs (23-7) and limited Millersville 140 total yards, 98 of which came on the ground.
 
Quarterback Chad Barton (Hollidaysburg, Pa./Hollidaysburg) tossed two touchdown passes to improve his season touchdown/interception ratio to a PSAC-leading 17-1. He completed 11-of-19 passes for 96 yards and was not sacked for the second consecutive game. It is the first time the KU offensive line did not allow a sack in consecutive games since 2010.
 
Nathan Hollander (Clarks Summit, Pa./Abington Heights) and Kellen Williams (Chambersburg, Pa./Chambersburg) combined for eight of the team's 11 catches. Hollander led the way with five catches and Williams hauled in Barton's other TD pass.
 
Freshman kicker Alec Rosenfeld (Bensalem, Pa./Bensalem) drilled both of his field goal attempts, 28 and 35 yards, and remains perfect on the year at 6-for-6.
 
Defensively, Zachary Delp led the way individually with eight tackles from his linebacker position. Jalen Nieves (Bensalem, Pa./Bensalem) returned from injury and hauled in an interception. Drake Brumfield (Marietta, Pa./Donegal) also had an interception, his team-leading third of the year. Sam Dougan (Secane, Pa./Ridley) notched seven tackles and Adam Goeringer (Dallas, Pa./Dallas) finished with six.
 
Kutztown returns home for its next two games, both of which are expected to be against nationally-ranked opponents. It takes on undefeated and currently ninth-ranked West Chester University for a Thursday night game on Oct. 9 beginning at 7:05 p.m. at University Field. The Golden Rams earned a narrow 22-21 victory last year on their home turf.
