Big Red, Quakers Split Ivy League Crown

Ivy League Wrap

Columbia recorded 444 yards rushing to erase the Lions' single-game team record of 421 yards set in 1946 against Lafayette.

Brown finished 0-9-1 overall, the Bruins first winless season since 1971.

After Johnson's touchdown, Columbia went ahead 14-0 when Chris Della Pietra passed 27 yards to wide receiver Terry Brown after a Bruins' fumble was recovered by the Lions' Wayne Powless.

Brown narrowed the margin to 14-7 on Wayman Caldwell's three-yd. scoring run in the second quarter, but Abbruzzese raced 35 yards down the right side 1:50 into the second half to put Columbia in front 21-7.

Matt Pollard kicked a 33-yd. field goal for the Lions in the third quarter and Abbruzzese's second scoring run capped a 69-yd. drive in the fourth period.

Dartmouth 24 Princeton 17

Dartmouth running back David Clark ran for 130 yards and two touchdowns to lead the Big Green to a 24-17 victory over Princeton at Palmer Stadium Saturday in Princeton, N.J.

Clark's second touchdown of the day, a one-yd. run in the fourth quarter, gave Dartmouth its first winning season since 1982.

Clark carried the ball 12 times, and his first touchdown--a 97-yard run--tied the Ivy League record he set against Harvard five weeks ago. The score tied the game at 10-10 in the third quarter.

Dartmouth opened the fourth quarter with another touchdown when junior quarterback Mark Johnson (18 of 25 passing, 273 yards) threw a 60-yd. pass to Craig Morton (five receptions, 125 yards).

Princeton scored on the next series as Judd Garrett tallied his second touchdown of the day.
