The two biggest problems for the Johnnies' defense were Ehrlich and freshman running back Rahshan La Mons Ehrlich went 25-of-37 passing for 274 yards with a touchdown while rushing 16 times for 57 yards and a TD "La Mons and Ehrlich aren't like guys we see (in the MIAC)," Fasching said "La Mons is a better running back than anybody I've seen Said Sanders (who led SJU with 11 tackles): "La Mons is very talented The game swung the River Hawks' way late in the first half after Bourgeois hit a 43-yard field to cut the Johnnies' lead to 17-10 with 2:34 left before halftime "I thought that stop changed the game," Susquehanna head coach Tom Perkovich said If we were down two scores at halftime — and then they get the ball coming out of the half — you're probably sitting there thinking that it's not our day." The River Hawks saw the opening and took advantage Ehrlich hit wide receiver Kyle Howes for a pretty 46-yard pass to the SJU 23 La Mons scored from 2 yards out to tie the game at 17 going into halftime Fasching viewed those two drives as the key to the game "We had a great play called on that fourth down That was a big 14-point swing in their favor," Fasching said We might have been up by three touchdowns in the third quarter if we had converted that fourth down." John's looked like it had the momentum back after scoring on the first drive of the second half Syverson hit All-American junior wide receiver Dylan Wheeler for a 10-yard touchdown less than three minutes in to make it 24-17 Wheeler made an improbable one-handed catch behind Susquehanna cornerback Dominic Winn's back to haul it in that's when La Mons went to work on the Johnnies' defense La Mons scored on a 17-yard touchdown with 8:24 left in the third to tie it at 24 The Johnnies thought La Mons was tackled down on the play but replays showed his knee never hit the turf La Mons bounced off an SJU defender who was on the ground balanced himself with his right hand and ran into the end zone untouched "I was just playing football out there," La Mons said "The coaches have put me in positions to be successful as a young guy The best decision of my life was picking Susquehanna in recruiting I wouldn't want to do this anywhere else." The Johnnies went three-and-out on their next drive and the River Hawks kept things rolling and set themselves up for a 4th-and-goal with 1:22 left in the third Ehrlich hit Howes for a 1-yard touchdown to give Susquehanna a 31-24 lead Susquehanna defensive lineman Jake Schultes stripped Syverson of the ball for a fumble recovery at the St John's 40-yard line with 11:21 left in the game to set up another River Hawks' scoring opportunity La Mons ran in a touchdown from 30 yards away to give his team a 38-24 edge with 9:15 remaining "Rahshan is the best player I've ever played with he's the best player in the country," Ehrlich said as Syverson has shown throughout his career there was plenty of time to make things interesting He threw a 16-yard touchdown to tight end Joey Gendreau with 6:40 on the clock to cut the lead to 38-31 John's forced a Susquehanna three-and-out on the next drive and got the ball back at its own 45 following a poor punt by the River Hawks Syverson connected with senior wide receiver Marselio Mendez for a 19-yard touchdown pass with 3:31 left to tie it at 38 And just like Syverson had plenty of time to tie the game Ehrlich had just enough to set up Bourgeois for the game-winner "All week we practiced that situation and running down the clock I knew they were going to take a timeout before I kicked it I just stuck with my routine," Bourgeois said Credit to the offense for getting down the field I just kicked it like any other field goal." Bourgeois said it was the first game-winning field goal he's ever made That fact got a surprised look from Perkovich I was confident in him to get it there," Perkovich said of Bourgeois "We beat a hell of a football team at the buzzer We didn't want to give them the ball back after they tied it "Their quarterback — I don't think you can ever stop him Some of the catches they made on us in tight coverage was pure insanity The River Hawks finished with 490 yards of total offense to St Syverson finished 37-of-46 passing for 466 yards with five touchdowns Schwellenbach had a game to remember with nine catches for 167 yards and two touchdowns Mendez had eight catches for 113 yards and Gendreau had six catches for 98 yards "This team has been resilient all season and we've never let momentum kill us," Perkovich said "We bounce back and continue to make plays This is a big moment for Susquehanna football To win on the road against a team of this caliber finally shows people where we're at as a program."

Conway says the ice mass is a pretty elaborate affair "We set up an altar and bring all the necessary supplies and vessels We set up chairs students bring their blankets We pre-record music so that the musicians fingers don't freeze." This will be the third time the schools have held mass on the ice when we were forced to think creatively and innovatively And this was an exciting way to bring students into a creative and beautiful experience of mass in a place that they love and adore." Conway says the "ice mass" is a good example of the schools' Benedictine values "The Benedictines value care for creation and stewardship and liturgy And so to do a liturgy like this in creation matters to students." Conways says the schools hold masses outside throughout the year One in the Clement football stadium and one on the grass outside the church And CSB and SJU may be the only schools in the world who take mass out onto the ice "We know of a school in Michigan that builds an ice chapel but we don't know of any other schools who are doing a mass on a frozen lake set-up tiki torches and break out the hand warmers and blankets The mass begins at 9 Sunday evening just off shore on Lake Sagatagan at St but you're welcomed to attend if you'd like to go Oh, and air temperature at mass-time on Sunday evening is expected to be a balmy 30-degrees Conway credits University Chaplain Father Nick Kleespie for making this event happen "He's extremely dedicated to these students." She said Ben's because he worked tirelessly to set something like this up to give us the tools that we need to do something like this really well and to do it in an exciting and rooted way Conway -- who is a Minnesota transplant -- says things that happen on ice are very inherent to Minnesotans "This event makes me always a little bit nervous even though there's no reason to be nervous this is as good as it gets," she said But if there IS concern about ice safey "Our safety and security team ensured that the lake was at least 20 inches thick in depth."

cleanser El Gordo Bros is – literally – down the street tucked inside the Quick Stop just a few blocks from campus El Gordo Bros has an affordable menu with a variety of options but at Gordo Bros I find myself torn between too many options The prices are concentrated around the $10-$15 range but if you order individual tacos they start at $3.50 The amount of food that comes with each entree is fully worth the price Pictured on the bottom right is the enchilada platter for $15 My friend raved that this platter was well-balanced between the base of the rice and the enchilada’s variety of flavors These churros have a cinnamon-sugar coated crunch and the perfect soft inside you might end up devouring it all in one sitting their tacos are $1.50 each – making this spot perfect for the broke college student every entree is served with a bag of chips and a small salsa the location inside of the QuickStop has its perks you can easily browse the convenience store The Arizona Teas are a great complement to the spicy food and are sold for 99¢ the workers are all incredibly kind and helpful but I would recommend going in and interacting with the staff and it helps that you can wander around the convenience store while the smell of your food fills the place El Gordo Bros is the restaurant that will add flavor and vibrancy to your campus life This restaurant is a unique small
