FOOTBALL
Roth Healey, Emory & Henry, Sr.,
Defensive Back
Healey, a senior from Easton, Pa.,
helped lead the Wasps to a come-from-behind 14-13 win at Maryville
College (Tenn.) on Saturday. The Wasps trailed 13-0 with just over
two minutes left in the third quarter when Healey put E&H's
first points on the board. With the Scots driving deep in Wasps'
territory, quarterback Evan Pittenger lost the ball as he was
scrambling. Healey picked it up and sprinted 72-yards, beating the
Maryville offense to the pilon for a touchdown. That fumble was one
of four turnovers by Maryville as the Scots threw three
interceptions, with one corralled by Healey in the first half.
Healey tied for game-high honors with nine tackles, including six
solo. He also recorded a tackle for a loss and broke up a pass in
the fourth quarter. Healy has 16 tackles thru the first two games
of the season.

a career-high 418 yards and six touchdowns thru the air against

straight game, marking the second time they've done that in

receivers in his 28-of-39 (71.8%) overall passing performance. He
led Guilford to scoring drives on its first eight possessions. In
the first half alone, Pawlowski exploded for five touchdowns and

of the football has continued into 2014 as he has thrown 10
touchdown passes without an interception thru the first two games
of the season. In 2013, Pawlowski threw the ball away just three
times against 24 touchdown passes over 308 total pass attempts.
