WEEK 3 STATS: 150 all-purpose yds, 8 rec, 123 receiving yds, GW TD
Ward was clutch as can be in Bryant’s second win over a CAA team in three weeks. The receiver totaled a game-high 123 yards and the game-winning touchdown on eight receptions in the Bulldogs’ 13-10 victory over No. 23 Maine. The final 55 yards of Ward’s day propelled Bryant to the signature win, which unfolded before a Homecoming crowd of 3,291 at Bulldog Stadium. With Bryant facing a 10-6 deficit and only 3:07 remaining, Ward sparked and then capped a quick, four-play touchdown drive. The junior receiver reeled in a 41-yard catch on the opening play of the drive. Three plays later, he caught a pass from Dalton Easton at Maine’s 10-yard line, proceeded to make a defender miss and then dived toward the end zone for the score.
