Other updates

For the second straight year, the football team went down to the final minute of its season-opener before pulling out a win. The Bears recorded a 16-14 victory over visiting Simpson College (Iowa) Sept. 7. Trailing 14-13 with 11:30 left in the game, the Bears embarked on a 22-play, 98-yard drive to set up Ben Lambert's game-winning, 18-yard field goal with 46 seconds left. The drive consumed 10:44 as WUSTL won its 12th straight season opener. Lambert, who tied the team's single-game record with three field goals in his first game with the team, gave the Bears a 6-0 lead after one quarter. A 56-yard Matt Alley-to-Brad Duesing touchdown pass made it 13-0 before Simpson took a 14-13 halftime lead. The Storm had just 91 yards of total offense in the first half, but an interception return set up a 1-yard TD run and a 38-yard punt return set up a 27-yard touchdown drive to give the Storm the one-point halftime edge. The Bears' Kevin McCarthy piled up 122 yards rushing on 29 carries in his first career start, including 43 on the game-winning drive. Alley finished 10 of 27 for 149 yards and a TD, while Duesing caught four passes for 90 yards and his first career TD. Freshman quarterback Nathan Szep took over late in the third quarter and completed nine of 16 passes for 82 yards, including seven of nine for 55 yards on the final drive. Brandon Roberts had a team-high seven tackles, while sophomore Ryan Jakusz recorded six tackles and a sack in his first career start.
