W.Liberty, Edinboro score 147 in D-II playoffs
WEST LIBERTY, W.Va. (AP) -West Liberty and Edinboro are making a habit of this.
Zach Amedro threw for 540 yards and six touchdowns, Kevon Calhoun ran for 173 yards and four more scores, and the Hilltoppers outscored Edinboro 84-63 on Saturday in the second round of the Division II playoffs.
The teams combined for 1,394 yards of total offense, breaking the division record of 1,369 set in Chadron State's 76-73 triple-overtime win over Abilene Christian on Nov. 23, 2007.
Their combined 1,170 yards passing broke the mark of 1,065 set by Western New Mexico and West Texas A&M on Oct. 8, 1994.
The total shouldn't have been too surprising, though: The teams racked up more than 1,000 yards of offense when Edinboro (Pa.) handed West Liberty its only loss, 42-30 on Aug. 29.
The top-seeded Hilltoppers (11-1), who led 56-21 at halftime, advanced to play California, Pa., in the quarterfinals on Saturday.
