total offense and accounted for three touchdowns as Maine
Maritime used a last-second goal line stand to post a 47-41
victory over Massachusetts Maritime in the 43rd Annual Admi-
ral's Cup game at Ritchie Field on Homecoming Weekend.
In a game that saw the teams combine for 88 points, the highest
scoring Admiral's Cup clash in the 43-year modern-day series
history, and 1,233 yards of offense, a defensive stand gave the
Mariners their first Admiral's Cup win since 2010.
Senior Jeddy Doyon paced Maine Maritime defensively with 16
total tackles (seven solo), while Alex Gamester added 10 total
tackles (four solo).
The final score broke the previous highest scoring mark in the
annual rivalry contest between the two schools of 82 points set
on September 28, 1991 in a 48-34 Massachusetts Maritime win in
Castine, as the Buccaneers now hold a 25-18 series advantage over
Maine Maritime in the Admiral's Cup series dating back to 1973.
