ANNAPOLIS, Md. – Quarterback Ronnie Curley ran for two scores and passed for another to lead No. 23 Salisbury to a 55-14 win over Frostburg State in the Tenth Annual Regents’ Cup football game at the Naval Academy’s Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium, on a wet and rainy Saturday evening.

The Sea Gulls (8-2, 2-1) amassed 484 yards in total offense including 441 on the ground and scored points on nine of their 11 possessions. SU, which earned its fifth-straight win in the series that dates back to 1973, ran out to a 27-0 lead early in the third quarter and never looked back.

Salisbury scored back-to-back touchdowns to take a 14-0 lead early in the second quarter and tacked on to Tommy Kowalick field goals (25 and 30 yards) in the second as well to lead 20-0 at halftime.

Curley ran for 99 yards on 15 carries and two scores and passed for 43 yards (2-of-9) and another touchdown to earn the Mike McGlinchey Most Outstanding Player for the Sea Gulls.

Frostburg State (3-6, 1-2) found its offensive rhythm on its first drive of the third quarter. Trailing 27-0, the Bobcats marched 73 yards in seven plays for their first touchdown with 3:36 left. Freshman quarterback Josh Volpe (Germantown, Md./Northwest), seeing his first action of the season, was a perfect 4-of-4 (62 yards) on the drive including a three-yard touchdown toss to fullback Derek Sheely (Germantown, Md./Northwest).

Salisbury extended its lead to 34-7 on the ensuing possession, but FSU answered again with its second score of the contest. After junior wideout Makiha Cooper (Baltimore, Md./Forest Park) took the kickoff 42 yards and into Sea Gull territory, Volpe completed three more passes and capped the drive with a one-yard touchdown plunge up the middle to cut the deficit to 34-14.

Salisbury answered with three touchdowns, two from junior William Midgette, and two interceptions all in the fourth quarter to seal the win.

Cooper earned the Mike McGlinchey Most Outstanding Player award for the Bobcats after finishing the contest with six receptions for 100 yards and four kickoff returns for 107 yards.

Volpe, who played just the second half, finished the game 9-of-12 for 156 yards and two touchdowns and two late interceptions. Sophomore tailback Anton Wade (Baltimore, Md./Patterson) led the Bobcat ground game with 52 yards on 21 rushes.

Freshman safety Jim Lohr (Bowie, Md./Archbishop Spalding) made a career and game-high 13 tackles while sophomore Terryl Monroe (Temple Hills, Md./Dematha) and George Feiser (Hagerstown, Md./Smithsburg) made 12.

Salisbury’s Warren Anderson led all players with 114 rushing yards and a touchdown on 12 carries while Midgette added 51 yards (six carries) and a pair of late touchdowns. Chris Ross led the SU defense with eight total tackles (one TFL), while All-American Jarrell Chandler made six stops.
