Gresock runs for 137 yards, 2 TDs as Gardner-Webb beats Eastern Illinois 21-10
Gresock needed just six carries to pile up 137 yards, and quarterback Nate Hampton threw for 195 yards and a score for the Runnin’ Bulldogs (4-2, 2-0 OVC–Big South). Gardner-Webb rolled up 446 total yards, including 251 on the ground, and held Eastern Illinois to 3.6 yards per play.
Hampton capped the opening drive with a 14-yard pass to Quasean Holmes late in the first quarter. Gresock’s 64-yard burst early in the second doubled the lead, and he broke another long run for a 21-0 cushion midway through the quarter.
Eastern Illinois (3-3, 2-1) got on the board with Drew Schiller’s 42-yard field goal before halftime and trimmed the margin to 21-10 late in the third when Cole LaCrue scrambled 19 yards for a touchdown. But the Panthers’ offense stalled the rest of the way, managing just 108 yards passing and one trip inside the red zone after the break.
Anthony Lowe led Gardner-Webb with 93 yards on six catches, and the defense forced six punts while allowing only one play longer than 20 yards.
