CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (AP) — Charlie Smith threw for 297 yards, Kise Flannery ran for two touchdowns, and Harvard eased past Holy Cross 30-7 on Saturday.
Harvard (5-0 and ranked No. 17 in the Stats Perform FCS Top 25) led 13-7 at halftime after a 1-yard touchdown run by Flannery and two 37-yard field goals from Kieran Corr.
Smith’s 67-yard touchdown connection with Henry Shoemaker made it 23-7 late in the third quarter and Flannery ran 10 yards for the final score with about 4 1/2 minutes left in the game.
The Crusaders, who had averaged 39.5 points in winning their last two games, scored only on halfback Jake Croce’s 51-yard pass to Joseph Williams in the second quarter.
Smith completed 19 of 32 passes and had the one long touchdown to Shoemaker, who had three receptions for 83 yards.
Williams had 123 yards rushing and caught four passes for 87 yards for Holy Cross (2-5).
Harvard has won four straight games against Holy Cross. The Crimson lead the series, 49-26-2.
