Manning, Eperjesi spark SHAPE
This report has been corrected.
Connor Manning rushed for 170 yards and two TDs, and Austin Eperjesi caught a 28-yard touchdown pass and intercepted two passes Saturday to fuel the visiting SHAPE Spartans to a 37-7 Division II-North victory over the Schweinfurt Razorbacks.
Manning went into the end zone on runs which covered 19 and 31 yards as the Spartans improved to 2-0-1 overall and 2-0 in conference play. His runs were part of a SHAPE ground attack which totaled 336 yards.
Schweinfurt (1-2, 0-2) got on the scoreboard when Logan Mansfield scooped up a SHAPE fumble and took it 95 yards for a touchdown.
Next up for the Razorbacks is a non-conference game Saturday at unbeaten Naples. SHAPE is scheduled to host unbeaten Bitburg the same day in a II-North showdown.
Correction:
Due to incorrect information submitted to Stars and Stripes, the number of yards Connor Manning rushed was inaccurate. He rushed 170 yards.
