Harold Coles’ rushing touchdown to close out the third quarter helped the Cornell football team draw even against a tough Georgetown squad, but the Hoyas pulled back ahead for good on a touchdown with 5:43 on the clock to spoil the Big Red’s Homecoming game with a 14-8 victory on sunny Saturday at Schoellkopf Field.
Once again, the Cornell (1-2) defense turned in a staunch effort, holding Georgetown (4-1) to 117 yards on the ground and 301 total yards. Freshman linebacker Jake Stebbins led the way with 10 tackles and a sack. The Big Red defense also had a hand in setting up the team’s scoring drive by pinning the Hoyas deep in their own territory before forcing a punt and a short field for the offense.
