SAINT PAUL, Minn. (AP) — Hope Adebayo rushed for 277 yards and three touchdowns and St. Thomas won its fourth straight game, racing past San Diego 34-14 on Saturday.
Adebayo scored on runs of 42, 60 and 70 yards as the Tommies (5-3, 4-0 Pioneer Football League) surpassed 30 points for the fourth straight game, a first in their Division I history.
Adebayo got the game going in the right direction when he burst through the middle for a 42-yard score midway through the first quarter. That capped a 90-yard drive. Tak Tateoka’s 25-yard touchdown pass to Jacob Wildermuth and a pair of Ben Hoiland field goals, including a 44-yarder two seconds before halftime, made it 20-7.
On the first snap of the second half, Adebayo went off tackle and used a jump and a spin for a 60-yard touchdown.
After Grant Sergent’s second touchdown pass for the Toreros (4-3, 2-2), Adebayo capped the scoring with a 70-yarder.
Logan Gingg ran for 121 yards for San Diego but the Toreros were outgained 343-121 on the ground.
