10/5/2024 4:58:00 PM | Football
Abell, who brought a high-numbers offense to Davidson seven years ago, broke William Younger's (1923-31) record for the most coaching wins in program history.
Running back Mari Adams and quarterback Andrew Frazier combined for 279 rushing yards and two scores, while Frazier had another efficient game at signal caller, finishing 8-of-10 passing for 144 yards and two touchdowns.
For the second straight game, Davidson (4-1, 1-0 PFL) raced out to a 21-0 lead, this time highlighted by a Frazier to Brody Reina 43-yard touchdown pass.
Adams (1-yard run) and Sam Valor (6-yard run) added touchdowns for the 'Cats, who led 21-7 at the half behind 300 yards of total offense.
After forcing Marist (0-5, 0-2 PFL) to punt on its opening drive of the third quarter, the Wildcats went deep into their bag of tricks, faking a 30-yard field goal that resulted in holder Aaron Maione connecting with tight end Christian Berry on a 12-yard touchdown pass.
Adams ran 24 times for 164 yards and also had a 3-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter.
Frazier rushed 17 times for 115 yards and found Sam Hedrick for a 10-yard score in the fourth quarter.

Davidson will travel to Ohio next weekend for a noon kickoff at Dayton, Saturday, Sept. 12.
