RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Brian Brown caught seven passes for 120 yards, including a 56-yard touchdown, to help Richmond to a 23-0 win over Villanova on Saturday.
Griffin Trau kicked three field goals and Deontez Thompson carried in the final score of the game, a 6-yard touchdown run, with 10 seconds left as Richmond (6-1, 3-1 Colonial) notched its fourth straight win. Kyle Lauletta finished 17 of 26 for 218 yards passing, including the touchdown throw to Brown.
