WORCESTER, Mass. — Jayden Clerveaux carried 30 times for 159 yards and Holy Cross beat Fordham 19-16 on Saturday for its eighth straight victory in the series to retain possession of the Ram-Crusader Cup. It was coach Dan Curran's first home win at Holy Cross. Holy Cross went ahead for good with 6:14 remaining in the fourth quarter after a 13-play, 75-yard drive that lasted for more than six minutes. Joe Pesansky ended the drive with a 3-yard scoring pass to Jacob Petersen. Both teams punted on their next possession to give Fordham another shot with 1:41 remaining, starting from its 21-yard line. After a short run, a Jack Capaldi pass went through the hands of Cole Thornton. Then Capaldi wasn't able to find an open receiver on the next two plays.
