BRUNSWICK, Maine – The Bowdoin College football team couldn't find the end zone in a 28-3 setback to Williams College on Saturday at Whittier Field. The Ephs improve to 3-0 this season while the Polar Bears fall to 0-3.

Game Highlights

• After the teams traded three-and-outs to start the game, Williams dented the scoreboard first as Bobby Maimaron found Justin Burke down the middle of the field for a 51-yard touchdown strike midway through the first quarter.
• Bowdoin appeared to answer on the ensuing kickoff as Aise Pream returned the kick for a touchdown, but the play was called back due to a hold. The Polar Bears were able to march 55 yards on 12 plays and score on a 37-yard field goal by Jotham Casey (the first of his career), to cut the lead to 7-3 after the opening quarter.
• The teams traded possessions again until midway through the second quarter when Maimaron directed Williams 80 yards in 10 plays, scoring on a four-yard pass to the right flat to Dan Vaughn.
• After forcing a three-and-out by Bowdoin, Williams was able to gain some more breathing room before halftime, covering 78 yards in eight plays in just 1:58 to score on five-yard pass to Frank Stola with just 27 seconds remaining before the break, carrying a 21-3 edge into intermission.
• Bowdoin drove into Williams territory early in the third quarter but couldn't add to their total.
• The Ephs added a second-half score on a 39-yard pass from Maimaron to Stola to close out the scoring.
