‘Nova Football outlasts Towson in turnover and injury filled game, 24-9

In a game where there were seven combined turnovers between both teams, a win wasn’t going to come easy.

For Villanova, things became a lot more difficult when starting quarterback Zach Bednarczyk went down in the game’s opening drive. As a result, redshirt freshman Jack Schetelich entered the game in his place.

The Cranford, N.J. native would help steer the Wildcats to victory by finishing off the opening drive with a touchdown, then later capitalizing on Towson turnovers with a pair of decisive rushing touchdowns—allowing Villanova to fight its way to a 24-9 win.
