Wyoming rallies to beat Northern Colorado 21-13 after lightning delay
LARAMIE, Wyo. (AP) --- Tyler Hughes threw for two touchdowns, Markell Holman
rushed for 80 yards, and Wyoming beat Northern Colorado 21-13 on Saturday.
Wyoming (1-1) trailed 13-7 with under 13 minutes to play in the game and had
just fumbled the ball away when the game was delayed due to lightning in the
area.
Wyoming went 14 plays and 82 yards on its first drive after the delay and took
a 14-13 lead on Hughes' 15-yard TD connection with Charlie Coenen. Hughes added
an 18-yard touchdown pass to tight end Kyle Frendt with 1:44 left.
Northern Colorado turned it over on downs with 53 seconds left and Wyoming ran
out the clock.
Safety Jones Thomas had two interceptions to go with five tackles and Ethan
Stuhlsatz paced Wyoming with 11 tackles.
Kenny Lueth was 13 of 23 for 202 yards passing with one touchdown and two
interceptions for Northern Colorado (0-3). Justin Guin had 88 yards rushing on
17 carries. Marcus Mozer caught three passes for 72 yards and a score.
