Luke Eddy with fellow Lion kicking great Larry Walsh '86
Trailing 3-0 but riding the momentum of Marcorus Garrett’s 28-yard run, Columbia found itself with a
scoring about halfway through the 2nd quarter.
A holding penalty took away what looked like a chip shot
field goal opportunity and forced the Lions to attempt a tough 40-yarder with eight
minutes left in the half.
But Luke Eddy was
solid as ever on the Franklin Field turf and he booted it through to knot the
game at 3-3.
The drive and successful kick were a key statement by
Columbia in a game that truly looked like it was swinging Penn’s way.
Eddy has had ice water in his veins in each of the three games he’s played against
Penn so far in his career.
No doubt, he’ll need to keep that up this year as well.
