Junior quarterback and team captain Carter Sido passed for a game-high and career-high 282 yards and five touchdowns, but Hampden-Sydney still fell short on Saturday. The Tigers lost an Old Dominion Athletic Conference (ODAC) game to Ferrum College 41-36.

There were some positives on the day, however. Sophomore wide receiver Ethan Dowdy had a game-high and career-high 127 yards receiving and two touchdowns, while redshirt-freshman wide receiver Manning Lasso had a career-high 103 yards receiving and two touchdowns, as well, for the visiting Tigers (3-3, 1-2), who led the host Panthers (3-3, 1-2) 17-13 at halftime and 23-13 early in the third quarter, before the home team scored four unanswered touchdowns to take control. Senior linebacker and team captain Robert Clarke (Atlanta, GA) had a game-high and career-high 14 tackles for the Garnet and Grey.

Hampden-Sydney returns home this week to welcome ODAC member Averett University on Saturday, Oct. 26, at 1 p.m. on Fulton Field at Lewis C. Everett Stadium. It’s Homecoming Weekend on the Hill.
