THE SUN, Sunday, October 9. 1983 -n it- i r-v Terps overcome Syracuse after mild scare, 34-13 A 1 1 I Iff A 0 1 i (0 zone. With 2 minutes left, the Terps' Joe Kraus returned a punt 22 yards. Three running plays and a 15-yard Syracuse penalty moved the ball to the 25, and Rick Badanjek scored from there, aided by a block from Keeta Covington. While Syracuse (3-3) was having its problems in the first half, D'Dad-dio and Jess Atkinson, a junior place-kicker, took care of Maryland's first 13 points, D'Addio with his first 1-yard dive, and Atkinson with field goals of 33 and 36 yards, and an extra point.

Three more successful conversions raised his Atlantic Coast Conference record in this department to 62 in a row. Sixteenth-ranked Maryland (4-1) might have broken it wide open early when it appeared to be playing with poise and confidence, but wide receiver Eric Holder let a pass slip through his hands when he was wide open behind the Orange defenders. From there, it took the Terps a while to regroup. Maryland went 72 yards in nine plays to score at the end of the half, aided by a 21-yard Willie Joyner run on fourth down that put the home side on the Syracuse 14. Two plays later, freshman Sean Sullivan beat defender Ed Koban to the near left corner of the end zone for his first college touchdown.

Syracuse scored on its first possession of the second half, Brent Ziegler taking a pass from Norley at the 2 and stepping in for the touchdown. When McAulay added his field goal early in the fourth quarter, it still appeared the game could go either way. "The play is designed to go to an open spot, and Wilson timed it perfectly," Ross said in explaining the game's biggest play. "When I got through, I think the fullback was supposed to pick me up, but he didn't get there in time," Wilson added. It was the third sack of the year for the 6-foot-2, 239-pounder, and the team's fifth of the day.

See MARYLAND, C30, Col. 1 By John W. Stewart Sun Staff Correspondent College Park The University of Maryland, one big play removed from being tied with 10 minutes left, collected two touchdowns In the last four minutes for a 34-13 football victory over Syracuse in Byrd Stadium yesterday. A crowd of 43,700 saw a Terrapin offense execute well enough to build a 20-3 lead in the first half, then saw it sputter for 20 minutes as the Orange closed to 20-13, and had a first-and-goal at the 9-yard line. Two carries netted 4 yards.

Enter Eric Wilson. Exit Syracuse hopes. The junior Maryland linebacker blasted through a hole in the Orange line and, untouched en route, sacked sophomore quarterback Todd Norley for a 7-yard loss. Faced with a fourth down, Don McAulay, the team's normally sure-footed kicker, came on to attempt a 29-yard field goal. He had kicked two earlier and was 10-for-12 on the season.

The attempt was wide to the right and the air went out of the Syracuse balloon. From the 20, Terp quarterback Boomer Esaison drove his mates 80 yards in 13 plays, but it was a goal-line gamble by coach Bobby Ross which sealed the verdict It was fourth-and-1 for a touchdown when he called time out "I wanted to think out my decision," he said. "My better judgment said field goal. I took the gamble and it was a gamble to go for it, because I felt we needed the mentality of a score the confidence of going for the touchdown and making it. I was looking down the road more than at this game, because I think we can be a really good football team and this would help." Dave D'Addio, who had scored Maryland's first touchdown by leaping over the line from a yard away, did it again.

Syracuse had put up a stiff fight though, because it took D'Addio four cracks, two from the 2 and two from the 1, to get into the end 1 v- Astodatad Prtu Maryland fallback Dave D'Addio leaps over a pile of players for a first-quarter touchdown against Syracuse.

Louthan, a quick-footed senior from Eugene, gained 98 yards on 19 rushes and ran for five touchdowns as the Falcons (3-2) zoomed through Navy's porous defense for a total of 510 yards in total offense, 340 coming on the ground. Louthan also completed eight of 15 passes for 130 yards and set up his team's final touchdown with his timely aerials. "Louthan is a great wishbone quarterback," said a beaten Navy coach, Gary Tranquill. "He makes great decisions and makes things hap By James II.
