Throggs Neck, NY
Sophomore Sam Arnold ran for a career high 202 yards as the
Apprentice School defeated Maritime College 60-0 in the second
Mariners Classic at Reinhart Field on the campus of Maritime
College on Saturday.
The Apprentice School started scoring early as senior
quarterback Kyle Franklin found fellow senior Travis Reid on an
18-yard scoring strike capping off a 62-yard scoring drive.
Those two connected again for the third touchdown on a 24-yard
scoring pass with 10:13 left in the first half. Franklin got
into the scoring act himself on a 10-yard scamper sandwiching those
scoring passes.
Reid ended the day with eight receptions for 160 yards and three
touchdowns. His eight receptions pushed his season total to
50 which breaks his school record set last year with 48. The
160 yards pushed him past Andre Ross for the school, modern-era
career yardage mark as he now stands at 2,559.
Senior Earnest Nimmo got into the scoring act with a pair of
touchdown runs. His first one came following a Thomas
Moultrie fumble recovery on the Maritime 29 and Nimmo capped off
the drive with a two-yard plunge. The second came on an
88-yard scoring drive where he finished it on a four-yard
run. Franklin found Reid on the first-play of the drive on a
73-yard pass which enabled him to break the yardage record.
The Builder defense has been opportunistic in the first half
with one interception, one fumble recovery and holding the
Privateers to 58 yards total offense.
The second half saw the defense step up more forcing a pair of
turnovers on the first two possessions for the Privateers. On
the first one, freshman Lamar Lancaster scored on a four-yard run
following a Robert Hannah interception. The next touchdown
was a Franklin to Reid three-yard score for Reid's second
three-touchdown reception day of his career. That came as a
result of a fumble eventually recovered by the Builders on the
five-yardline.
In the fourth quarter J'Michael Swain capped a 13-play, 50-yard
drive with a three-yard run and Lancaster had his second touchdown
on a 24-yard scamper to finish an eight-play, 73-yard drive.
Maritime College entered the game ranked 19th in NCAA
Division III averaging 252 yards per game and the Builders held
them to 62 yards rushing and 92 yards of total offense on the day.
Arnold's 202-yard outburst was the second highest single-game total
in the last 24 years of Builder football. Only a 232-yard
game from Thurm Gibson against Bridgewater in 1985 stands higher in
Builder history. Franklin, who connected on his first 11
passes in the game, finished 13-of-16 for a career-high 225 yards
and three touchdowns.
The Builders now travel to Lynchburg, Va. next Saturday to face
in-state rival Southern Virginia University.
