Husson defense comes up big in conference road win over Curry College

Anthony Santacroce and Dominic Trott (Monmouth Academy) each scored a touchdown, and the Husson defense came up with three interceptions on Saturday afternoon culminating in a 17-7 Conference of New England football victory over Curry College in Milton, Massachusetts.

Santacroce had a 1-yard touchdown run in the first quarter, while Trott caught a 4-yard scoring pass from Brody Gibson in the second for the visting Eagles. Wesley Williams was the offensive leader for Curry College, as he had five catches for 89 yards and a touchdown. Curry drops to 4-4 and 3-2 in the Conference of New England. The Husson defense was the difference. Brayden Trombly and Nolan Yates had seven total tackles. Trombly had two of the three interceptions, while Melvyn Telisca had the other. Erik Menger added four total tackles (three for a loss) and two sacks. The Eagles improve to 3-5 and 3-2 in league play, and will host Nichols College next Saturday at 12 p.m. in the regular season home finale.
