UA takes Army 22-3

By Associated Press

POSTED: 04:14 p.m. EDT, Sep 20, 2008

WEST POINT, N.Y.: Chris Jacquemain threw for 204 yards and a touchdown, and Igor Iveljic kicked three field goals to lead Akron to a 22-3 victory over Army today.

Jacquemain was 14-for-25 passing with no interceptions and Andre Jones caught five passes for 100 yards and one touchdown. Dennis Kennedy ran 73 yards on 19 carries and a TD for the Zips (2-2).

Army is 0-3 for the first time since 2005 and extended its losing streak to nine games.

Kennedy's 1-yard touchdown midway through the fourth quarter gave Akron a 19-3 lead and came five plays after Bryan Williams returned a fumble by third-string quarterback Carlo Sandiego 16 yards to the Army 24. It was one of five turnovers by the Black Knights, and the Zips scored after three of them.

Army rotated three quarterbacks — Carson Williams on passing downs, Chip Bowden to run and Sandiego when Bowden was injured.

Bowden led Army with 65 yards rushing on 21 carries before leaving the game limping with an apparent right ankle injury late in the third quarter.

Akron took a 9-0 lead when Jacquemain hit Jones in stride in the end zone for a 25-yard touchdown pass 6:14 before halftime. Iveljic missed the point-after attempt.

The touchdown pass came three plays after Akron's Dan Marcoux forced Collin Mooney's fumble and Miguel Graham recovered at the Zips' 21. Army had driven 71 yards, with Bowden gaining 42 yards on seven carries on a variety of keepers. He also completed his only pass for 11 yards.

Williams, who went 7-for-7 in Army's last game before leaving in the second quarter with an injury to his left (nonthrowing) hand, was replaced by Bowden early in the second quarter. Bowden effectively ran the option before Williams re-entered in the final 1:07 of the first half to go 2-for-4 for 18 yards and set up Andrew Rinehart's 36-yard field goal as time expired.

Williams went 6-for-12 passing for 52 yards and an interception.

Along with field goals of 25, 36 and 37 yards, Iveljic missed from 25 yards in the first quarter when he hit the right upright. It was the first time Akron failed to score after reaching the red zone this season.
