It was the type of game a special teams coordinator could love.
Yoder would end with 120 net yards rushing on an efficient 17 attempts, adding 2 catches for 23 yards. And, of course, the four touchdowns.
The number that kept popping up during Lehigh’s (1-1, 0-0 PL) win over Wagner (1-1, 0-0 NEC) was “2016”, probably the last number any member of Lehigh Nation might have imagined surfacing on a rainy afternoon at Murray Goodman Stadium.
RB Luke Yoder capped off a 9 play, 85 yard drive to tie the game at 7 late in the first quarter, but ultimately a deep, physical Army (1-0, 0-0) team led by budding stars QB Bryson Daily and bruising RB Kanye Udoh were too much for the Mountain Hawks (0-1, 0-0) in a 42-7 victory.
The number of underclassmen on the field was astounding, even for such a young team as the Mountain Hawks.
