Football: GSU Offense To Much For Penguins

    Youngstown -- 
Georgia Southern used a 28-point second quarter to cruise to a 59-24 win over YSU in the Division I-AA title game at Finley Stadium in Chattanooga, Tenn.
    The Penguins jumped out to a 14-10 second-quarter lead on touchdown runs by senior tailback Adrian Brown and sophomore quarterback Jeff Ryan. After that, the Penguins could only watch as the Eagles scored 28 unanswered points, including a 72-yard punt return for a touchdown that put Georgia Southern up 38-14 at the half.
    Brown closed out an outstanding career by adding a fourth-quarter touchdown run and finished with 160 yards. The Eagles put up 639 yards on the ground on 61 carries and 656 yards of total offense. Junior fullback Adrian Peterson led the way scoring three touchdowns.
