Recap: Wassink, Bellamy rush to 35-31 victory in Western Michigan’s win over Ball State

Jon Wassink and LeVante Bellamy have been the centerpieces of Western Michigan’s offense for years, so it was only fitting for the seasoned duo to close their careers in Kalamazoo by putting on a show for the Bronco faithful.

Wassink, the 3-year starting quarterback, rushed for a career-high 131 yards and a touchdown, Bellamy added 157 and three touchdowns, and the two seniors led Western Michigan to a 35-31 victory over Ball State in their final home game at Waldo Stadium.

Both rushers set the tone for the game on their first carries of the night.
