CONSHOHOHOCKEN, Pa. – The Mansfield University sprint football team hits the road for the first time this season on Friday, Oct. 1 when they make the trek to Chestnut Hill College for a 7 p.m. non-conference game at A.A. Garthwaite Stadium.

QUICK HITS
The Mounties will look to rebound from a 55-28 defeat at the hands of University of Pennsylvania last Saturday.

The Mounties fell to 1-1 on the season, but had a few bright moments throughout the contest on Homecoming. The contest was a non-conference game and the Mounties remain 1-0 in the CSFL North after defeating Cornell, 48-3 in the opener.

Freshman quarterback Cahsid Raymond earned his second straight CSFL Rookie of the Week honor after throwing and rushing for over 200 yards on Saturday. Raymond completed 17-of-21 passes for 235 yards and two scores and was picked off once. Raymond added 200 yards and two touchdowns on the ground on 15 carries. The gunslinger had a long of 47 through the air and 64 on the ground. Through the first two games of his career, Raymond has an unprecedented 403 yards passing, 355 yards rushing and eight total touchdowns.

LaTrenton Randle and Isaiah Grundon have combined for 294 yards and two touchdowns receiving.

Junior linebacker Matt Robert has led the team in tackles in both games and comes into Friday with 23 total tackles (14 solo, nine assisted).

Nakiem Scott leads the team in turnovers, after picking off three passes in week one that earned him CSFL Defensive Player of the Week.

MEET THE GRIFFINS
The Griffins had an impressive run during the CSFL's last full season in 2019, sporting a 5-2 overall record and 2-2 record in conference.

Chestnut Hill is off to a 1-1 start this season after defeating Alderson Broaddus University, 28-7 in their opener, before falling to the U.S. Naval Academy, 52-0 last Saturday.

The Griffins rushed for 204 yards in their opener, led by 77 from Anthony Broderi. Lonnie Cebulski scored two touchdowns on the ground and added another through the air.

LAST MEETING
The Mounties fell to Chestnut Hill, 25-22 on Sept. 21 in 2019.

The loss sprung the Mounties on a four-game winning streak, leading the squad to their most wins in program history.

The Mounties are 2-3 against the Griffins, dating back to 2015.

LOOKING FORWARD
The Mounties remain on the road on Friday, Oct. 8 when they visit Saint Thomas Aquinas College for a 5 p.m. CSFL North game.
