BITBURG, Germany — Senior Sean Corcoran threw two touchdown passes as defending Division II champ SHAPE blanked Bitburg 24-0.

After a scoreless first period, Corcoran connected on a 15-yard scoring pass to Zach Rabiego and a 31-yarder to Marvin Coombs to give the Spartans a 14-0 halftime edge.

SHAPE padded the lead on a 5-yard TD run by Kociak Reed and a 35-yard field goal by Coombs.

Corcoran finished 8-for-14 for 135 yards.

Steve Small led the SHAPE ground game with 80 yards on 15 attempts. That was more than enough for the SHAPE defense, which pushed the Spartans to 2-0 overall and 1-0 in II-North. Linebacker Richard Rendon had 16 tackles and Reed had 13.

Bitburg, which got 11 tackles from Simon Shaw, fell to 1-1 overall and in II-North.

Vilseck fell to 1-1.
