BEVERLY, Mass. – A late fourth quarter six-yard touchdown run from Curry senior quarterback Alex Corvese (Cranston, R.I.) was the difference as the Colonels topped Endicott, 17-7, in conference play on Saturday afternoon at Hempstead Stadium.
The Gulls trailed 10-7 headed into the fourth quarter after Lavante Wiggins (Pittsfield, Mass.) hauled in a catch on a wheel route at Curry's 34-yard line and took it the house to make it a one-possession game (14:06, third quarter).
Both teams then compiled eight possessions, combined, prior to Curry's nine-play, 75 yard, five minute and 41-second drive capped off by Corvese's hurdling run into the end zone. The Gulls, meanwhile, had two chances down the stretch to make the contest interesting but only produced 31 yards on seven plays.
