AMHERST, Mass. (AP) — Jordan Hoy scored his first career touchdown on a 7-yard sneak to secure Old Dominion’s 17-7 win over Massachusetts on Saturday.
Hoy’s run, with 6:59 to play, capped a nine-play, 34-yard drive that was set up on the Monarch’s previous possession. Old Dominion had marched 93 yards on 16 plays, eating up more than 7 1/2 minutes, before being stopped on downs at the UMass 2.
The defense, which had eight sacks, then held the Minutemen to 2 yards in a three-and-out and Darrell Brown’s 17-yard punt return provided the good field possession.
