20-17 win over Tulane
WEST POINT, N.Y. (AP) --- Cale Hellums rushed for a career-high 223 yards,
Dawson Jones kicked the winning field goal on the final play and Army edged
Tulane 20-17 on Saturday.
The Army defense stopped Tulane on fourth down at the Black Knights' 33-yard
line with about four minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. Hellums, who
earlier scored both of Army's touchdowns, then led a 12-play, 58-yard drive to
set up Jones for his decisive 25-yard kick.
Tulane led 10-7 through three quarters before the offenses took over in the
final period. Hellums led Army on a 61-yard drive capped by a Jones field goal,
and just three plays later Kadin Semonza's 39-yard touchdown pass to Jaylin
Lucas put the Green Wave back ahead, 17-10. Hellums tied it again with a
58-yard run on Army's second play of the ensuing drive.
Hellums bettered his previous career high of 155 yards, set against Tulane last
season. On Saturday he attempted only 6 passes, completing 3 for 19 yards. Army
(3-2, 2-1 American Conference) had 329 yards rushing.
Semonza threw for 158 yards for the Green Wave (2-3, 0-1).
After allowing 503 yards in a 31-29 loss to Louisiana Tech last week, the Army
defense held Tulane to 280 yards.
