Senior wide receiver Pat Simonds (Sidney, N.Y.) caught nine passes for 167 yards and two touchdowns as Colgate defeated Bucknell 29-14 in the regular season finale.
Simonds finished the regular season with 66 catches for 1,012 yards and 14 touchdowns. His touchdown mark breaks the previous record held by Tom Stenglein, who caught 13 touchdowns in 1985. Simonds is also the third wide receiver in school history to have consecutive 1,000 yard seasons. Corey Hill (1997-1998) and Luke Graham (2002-2003) pulled off that feat as well. Furthermore, adding to all these achievements, Simonds finished fourth in career receptions and receiving yardage in the Colgate record books.
