W&L Football Defeated by Sewanee, 37-13

SEWANEE, Tenn. -- Sewanee freshman quarterback Wes Satterfield rushed for 114 yards and three touchdowns and completed 10-of-15 passes for 91 yards in leading the Tigers to a 37-13 win over Washington and Lee at McGhee Field.

The game's momentum swung as the Generals recovered a fumble on the Sewanee 4-yard line with 51 seconds, trailing 16-6.  After a pair of rushes for two yards, Sewanee sophomore cornerback Mike Glanton picked off a pass from W&L senior quarterback Peter Dean (Vienna, Va./James Madison) and returned it 98 yards for a touchdown and the Tigers took a 23-6 halftime edge.

The Generals (0-2) climbed back to 23-13 on a 22-yard touchdown pass from Dean to sophomore wide receiver Clark Kensinger (Dayton, Ohio/Oakwood) with 5:03 remaining in the third quarter, but a pair of Satterfield touchdown runs, one with 1:57 remaining in the third period, and another with 7:30 remaining in the fourth, iced the game away.

Dean led the Generals' offense, completing 10-of-18 passes for 101 yards and a touchdown, and rushing six times for 12 yards and another score.  Freshman running back Richard Garland (Fort Worth, Texas/Arlington Heights) carried 25 times for 38 yards, while junior wide receiver Taylor Callaham (Owings Mills, Md./McDonogh) caught three passes for 53 yards.  Junior linebacker Lloyd Wilson (Austin, Texas/Stephen F. Austin) led the Generals' defense with 12 tackles.

Senior running back Justin Askew supplemented Satterfield's day with 41 yards and a touchdown on 12 carries.

Washington and Lee returns to action on Saturday as it hosts Centre College for a 1:00 pm contest.
