Coach Paul Tortorella said on Hawk Talk on U92 and Renda Digital TV last night that a lot went wrong for IUP in Saturday’s loss to Edinboro, including two turnovers, untimely penalties, and a failure to capitalize with scores despite dominating the time of possession.
At 4-2, IUP will try to rebound against Seton Hill at George P. Miller Stadium this Saturday. The Griffins are 2-4 and 0-2 in the PSAC West, but except for their opening loss to Fairmont State, their games have all been close. They were beaten by Cal, 28-21 last week on a touchdown in the final 14 seconds and by Gannon, 23-17 the week before.
Tortorella says Seton Hill is a more stable program since Daniel Day took over six seasons ago.
Seton Hill is led by running back Ky’Ron Craggette a redshift junior from Connellsville who transferred after Notre Dame, Ohio folded its football program. Craggette has run for 729 yards this season and caught twenty passes for another 164.
Tortorella says the 5-10, 200-pounder carries the load for the Griffins.
Saturday’s game kicks off at two o’clock, with a 1:30 airtime on 92.5 FM U92.
