He leads the conference in sacks, and ranks third in tackles for loss.
St. John Fisher has reached the quarterfinals of the NCAA Division III Football Championship after defeating Curry 38-7. James Reile rushed 13 times for 104 yards, including a career-long 69-yard touchdown run, and Ryan Hanson added 83 yards on 16 carries. Tim Marion led the Cardinals with 148 all-purpose yards (66 receiving yards, 46 punt return yards, and 36 rushing yards). He ran 36 yards for one touchdown and caught a 25-yard scoring pass from Rob Kramer. Sean Trapper paced the defense with a career-high three sacks and Josh Gottlieb finished with nine tackles. The Cardinals travel to play Saturday at top-seeded Mount Union, which has won nine of the past 14 national titles and eliminated St. John Fisher in last year’s national semifinals.
