Tuesday's news and notes

Yale won its second straight with a 24-17 win over Brown on Saturday and kept its slim chances of an Ivy League title alive.

It also marked Tony Reno’s seventh win as Bulldogs head coach and his first in the fourth quarter.

“This was a special win with this group,” Reno said. “We pride ourselves at being very good at home. We’re 3-0 in the Ivy at home this year. That was important. They’re a very good, very experience team. We’ve had some good ones this year. That ranks up there.”

HELP WANTED
QBs Henry Furman and Morgan Roberts both went down with injuries on Saturday. Then Eric Williams was pulled for a fourth QB in Logan Scott.

So who will be under center against Princeton?

“Can you play?,” said a smiling Reno to a reporter when asked about the QB situation. “I don’t know, it’s a wait-and-see game, who’s healthy on Saturday. That’s the nature of where we’re at. Hank is recovering. It’s a time thing with him. If he feels good, he’s going.”

Furman has a shoulder injury. Reno said Roberts has a thigh bruise.

If Furman can’t go, it’s an open competition.

“This week of practice will tell,” Reno said. “They will earn it through practice.”

Reno continues to list Chris Smith and Varga as day-to-day.

I will be at practice on Thursday for an update.

OUT FOR SEASON
Senior wide receiver Cam Sandquist will miss the remainder of the season after suffering an elbow injury in practice last week.

Sandquist led the Bulldogs with 54 catches for 589 yards and two touchdowns as a junior, but saw a decreased role this season with the return of Chris Smith and Deon Randall. He had four receptions for 36 yards this season.

“He’s a pretty special kid,” Reno said. “Not only good football player and a huge part of our offense, but a leader. This time of year we need him to step up in leadership. He’s a great person, teammate and leader. We gave him the game ball on Saturday.”





There will be more notes to come later today.
