William St, Decatur 217-422-1092 MOUNT PLEASANT, IOWA It took the better part of four quarters, but Iowa Wesleyan's pass-happy attack finally got to visiting Millikin. And the fourth quarter of this non-conference college football clash proved to be the difference, as Wyatt Miller threw two of his three touchdown passes in the final quarter to propel Iowa Wes-leyan past Millikin, 21-17. Miller finished 34-of-52 for 268 yards, breaking loose after being held to six points in the first half. Iowa Wesleyan's offensive arsenal included nine players who had at least two catches.

The late rally reversed what had begun as a very promising game for Millikin. The Big Blue (0-2) took a 10-6 halftime lead on a 78-yard touchdown pass from Tim Brylka to Matthew Verble and a 38-yard field goal from John Hughbanks.

Pennington hit tailback Llow Turner on an 84-yard touchdown pass on Marshall's first play from scrimmage and found a streaking Moss in the end zone on a 17-yard pass with 1:26 left in the first quarter for a 14-0 lead. That was all the scoring until Division I Marshall (3-1) capitalized on three turnovers by Division I-AA fourth-ranked Western Illionis (3-1) in the first 9 minutes of the second half to take a 34-0 lead. Pennington, who threw for 282 yards with one interception, threw a 9-yard touchdown pass to Moss for a 41-7 lead with 13:22 remaining. That was the last play of the game for Moss. Moss finished with five receptions for 57 yards and two scores.
