Fortune, Loggers set school records in 49-42 win at Occidental

Box Score

LOS ANGELES, California – Puget Sound senior quarterback Hans Fortune set the school record for total yards in a game as the Loggers beat Occidental, 49-42, in Los Angeles on Saturday night.

Fortune logged 601 yards of total offense, including a career-best 587 through the air, surpassing Duncan White's previous mark of 593 yards of total offense (2010, vs. Lewis & Clark). Fortune also threw for a career-high seven touchdowns.

As a team, the Loggers (2-0) set a program record with 702 yards of total offense. The previous record was 643 yards against Lewis & Clark in 2010.

Senior wide receiver Brennan Schon finished with a game-high 159 receiving yards on nine catches to go along with three touchdowns. Freshman Aiden Santino also came away with three touchdown receptions. He posted 99 receiving yards on 11 receptions.

Senior Dustin Harrison matched Santino's 11 receptions for 105 yards. Senior running back Austin Wagner got involved with the passing attack by taking a short pass to the house from 93 yards out, giving the Loggers a 35-27 lead early in the fourth quarter.

The Tigers (0-1) reached the end zone in the game's opening drive, but the Loggers responded with 19 unanswered points. Schon caught a 33-yard touchdown pass and Santino scored twice during that stretch. The Loggers held on to a 19-13 lead at halftime.

The fourth quarter witnessed seven total touchdowns, but none were bigger than Santino's third touchdown of the night.

Occidental evened the scored, 42-42, with 7:37 left in the fourth quarter. The ensuing kickoff was short and gave the Loggers great field position at their own 48-yard line. Fortune completed consecutive passes to Harrison and Santino for 18 total yards. A six-yard pass to Schon moved Puget Sound down to Oxy's 23-yard line, and Fortune connected with Harrison once more for 16 yards. Following an incompletion, Santino hauled in a seven-yard touchdown reception to give the Loggers a 49-42 lead.

The Puget Sound defense forced Occidental into a turnover-on-downs on six plays.

The Loggers appeared to turn the ball right back over to the Tigers following an incompletion on 4th-and-11 with two minutes remaining, but Oxy was flagged for holding and Puget Sound held on for the win.

The Loggers are off the next two weeks, and they open their Northwest Conference slate at home against Willamette on Saturday, Oct. 1, at 1 p.m.
