Miami leads Toledo 24-7 at half
By Pete Conrad
Junior Trevor Cook kicked a school-record 55-yard field goal with 37.3 seconds left in the second quarter to give the winless Miami RedHawks a 24-7 halftime lead over the Toledo Rockets today, Oct. 31 at Yager Stadium.
The previous record for longest Miami field goal was held by Chad Seitz, who booted a 54-yarder in 1995. Cook’s kick was only the ninth field goal of 50 yards or longer in program history.
Miami redshirt freshman Zac Dysert threw for a touchdown pass and ran for another in the second period. True freshman linebacker Wes Williams returned an interception 20 yards for a touchdown in the first quarter for the RedHawks, who are looking to break a 13-game losing streak.
Toledo appeared to be on the move late in the first half following a 39-yard pass from freshman quarterback Austin Dantin to wideout Stephen Williams to the Miami 41-yard line, but a 5-yard tackle for loss by DeAndre Gilmore and a 6-yard quarterback sack by Jerrell Wedge forced Toledo to punt.
Wedge finished the half with three sacks.
Dysert has completed 21-of-37 passes for 215 yards.
