Liberty League Honor Roll

A.J. Wingfield threw for 221 yards on 17-for-21 passing and one touchdown and also ran for a touchdown on a 27-yard carry. Wingfield's touchdown run gave the Bombers a 7-0 lead against Hobart, and his 30-yard touchdown pass to Andrew Vito in the fourth quarter proved to be the game-winning score as Ithaca defeated Hobart, 28-21, in a top 25 matchup.

Zackary Dewitt scored what turned out to be the game-winner in Saturday's 2-0 victory over St. Lawrence University. After a midfield tackle that gained possession for the Bombers, Jonathan Kyriakidis was sent on the counter attack thanks to a through ball and he found Zackary Dewitt who calmly chipped the ball passed the keeper for his first collegiate goal.

Christopher Ogden rose to the occasion and curled a beautiful free kick attempt into the bottom right corner of the net. The scoring effort proved to be the game-winner for the Bombers as they held on for the 1-0 victory over Hobart College as part of a 2-0 week for IC.

The sophomore middle has really come on in the last few matches as Jamie Koopman finished with a season-best and match-high 17 kills as she was the top hitter for Ithaca College against Bowdoin College. Koopman has begun coming into form finishing with double-digit hitting efforts in three of the last four contests.
