SAN DIEGO (AP) - Sebastian Trujillo threw three touchdown passes to lead San Diego to their 28th straight home win with a 41-17 victory over Morehead State on Saturday night.
Trujillo had all of his touchdowns in the first half as San Diego built a 35-0 halftime lead with three Morehead State turnovers leading to 21 points. San Diego (6-0, 4-0 Pioneer Football) has the nation's longest home winning streak among all Football Championship Subdivision and Football Bowl Subdivision teams. The Toreros started the season with six consecutive wins for the third straight year. Trujillo completed 19 of 31 passes for 198 yards and threw TD passes of 19 and 6 yards to John Matthews. Mitch Ryan also caught a 25-yard scoring pass. Cornerback Al-Rilwan Adeyemi opened the scoring when he returned an interception 37 yards for a touchdown just more than one minute into the game. Phil Morelli, who gained 115 yards on 25 carries, added a 4-yard TD run. Morehead State (3-3, 1-1 PFL), which gained only 77 yards in the first half, scored on a 51-yard run by Erick Fitzpatrick and a 20-yard pass from Evan Sawyer to Fitzpatrick, both in the third quarter. |
