press release 

Collegeville, Pa … The College of New Jersey football team staged a late-game rally, but fell short 28-20 to Ursinus College in its season opener in Collegeville, Pa on Friday night.

Down 28-6 entering the final quarter, a 22-yard touchdown pass from sophomore quarterback Christopher Spellman (Mt. Laurel, NJ/Bishop Eustace Prep) to junior Kyle Janeczek (Allenwood, NJ/Wall) cut the deficit to 28-20 with 8:17 to play. But a 12-play, 37-yard drive eliminated 7:15 from the clock as the Bears secured their first victory of the season and spoiled the opener for new Lions’ head coach Wayne Dickens.
