GROVE CITY, Pa. -- The Grove City College football team dropped to 2-2 in the Presidents' Athletic Conference with a 53-10 setback Saturday afternoon to Thomas More on Homecoming at Robert E. Thorn Field. 

Sophomore running back Wesley Schools (Sparrowbush, N.Y./Port Jervis) paced Grove City by rushing for 100 yards on 22 attempts, recording his third consecutive 100-yard performance. Senior wide receiver Matt Pennypacker (Lititz, Pa./Warwick) caught three passes for 81 yards and a touchdown while sophomore quarterback Randall Labrie (McKees Rocks, Pa./Montour) completed 9 of 21 attempts for 123 yards. 

Thomas More led 14-0 in the second quarter before Grove City broke through at the 6:04 mark when sophomore kicker Mitch Causer (Johnstown, Pa./Westmont-Hilltop) kicked a 25-yard field goal. That capped a 15-play, 83-yard drive that used 8:15 of clock.

Thomas More broke open the game in the final three minutes of the second half, however. Brenan Kuntz threw a 47-yard touchdown pass to Logan Winkler on a reverse flea-flicker with 3:12 left in the half. With 39 seconds left in the half, Kuntz threw a 30-yard touchdown pass to Daylin Garland. 

Winkler caught a 41-yard touchdown pass on the first possession of the third quarter but Grove City quickly answered as Labrie fired a 38-yard touchdown pass to Pennypacker. 

Freshman linebacker Carl Jaszcar (Darlington, Pa./Blackhawk) led Grove City with 10 tackles while senior safety Kyle Beyer (Perry, Ohio/Perry) and freshman safety Patrick Mark (Palm Beach Gardens, Fla./Wellington) each had seven tackles. 

Kuntz completed 14 of 19 passes for 341 yards and four touchdowns. Garland had five catches for 154 yards. Hjavier PItts led Thomas More with 80 rushing yards and two touchdowns. Thomas More, the preseason favorite in the conference as voted upon in the preseason poll, held a 553-226 edge in total offense.
