Wrapping it Up

Wrapping up Saturday's action ...

Penn 31, Cornell 7
The Quakers ran for 282 yards as they won their 15th Ivy League title going away. Freshman Conner Scott, younger brother of Dartmouth's Tanner Scott, had three catches for 34 yards to lead the Penn receivers. Penn rose to No. 18 in the latest The Sports Network/Fathead.com FCS Top 25.

Harvard 28, Yale 21
Harvard's Marco Iannuzzi had an 84-yard kickoff return for a touchdown and a 46-yard reception on a flea flicker playing with a broken collarbone as the Crimson ruined Yale's season for the fourth year in a row and ninth time in 10 years.

Brown 38, Columbia 16
Beset by injuries this fall, Brown still tied for second in the Ivy League by sending Columbia down to its fifth loss in six games.

Holy Cross 34, Bucknell 9
The Crusaders gave up an early field goal and then ran off the next 34 points as they climbed over .500 to finish at 6-5.

Sacred Heart 38, Wagner 22
Dale Fink was 31-for-45 for 395 yards and five touchdowns to lead the Pioneers.
