With Saturday's 41-12 rout of Becker College, the Husson University Eagles are just one win away from an ECFC championship and a first ever NCAA Division III playoff game.

Freshman running back John Smith took the first handoff of the day and scampered 75 yards for a touchdown. Smith finished with 210 yards and 2 TDs on 22 carries.

Ellis Throckmorton led the Eagles on defense with 10 tackles, including 7 solos.

The Husson(7-1, 6-0 ECFC) win means the Eagles will go to Mt.Ida College next Saturday to play for the conference title.
