HEIDELBERG, Germany — Josiah Baldwin caught his second touchdown pass of the day with 33 seconds to play Saturday to give Kaiserslautern an 18-16 victory over previously unbeaten Heidelberg (5-1 overall, 4-1 D-I).

Backup quarterback Jordan Dodgen, who passed for 135 yards, threw the 15-yard game winner. Baldwin also scored on a 60-yard pass from starter Thomas Bolton.

K-town coach Tom Burriss said the key to victory was his defense.

“The play of our interior defensive line – Phillip Davidson, Andrew Holgate and Patricio Escobar – made the difference,” Burris said.

Heidelberg was already assured of a berth in the D-I title game.

Ramstein and Heidelberg will tune up for the finale when they play each other for the conference championship Saturday at Heidelberg. K-town closes out its season Saturday at Lakenheath.
