Occidental: Matt Andersen, Football
Matt Andersen rushed 14 times for 118 yards, his third 100-yard game of the season, in the Occidental's 38-23 win over longtime rival Pomona-Pitzer. Andersen scored the Tigers' second touchdown on a nine-yard scamper late in the first quarter, capping a seven-play, 75-yard drive in which he accounted for all but 11 yards of the team's offense. Andersen also caught four passes for 30 yards including a ten-yard touchdown midway through the second quarter.
