Sophomore Daniel Atsou (Capitol Heights, Md./Suitland) had six tackles, three for loss and senior Ryan Pentz (Mill Hall, Pa./Central Mountain) had an interception.
 
Chris Barnes led the Red Devils with 10 tackles, an interception and two breakups. Julien Devlin forced a fumble and Sean Couvetiere had an interception.
 
Oliver cut loose on a 73-yard rush in the first quarter to give Lycoming a 7-3 lead before Keesean Campbell gave the lead back to the Devils with an 88-yard kickoff return. Eyer caught a 24-yard touchdown pass with 2:34 left to give Lycoming a 14-10 lead at the end of the first.
 
Dickinson scored the next four touchdowns to lead 38-14 before Oliver broke free on his 89-yard run, which is the fourth-longest in program history and the longest Lycoming rush since Needhammer had a 90-yard rush against Misericordia in 2014. Oliver also capped a six-play, 35-yard drive with 6:24 left before Clark made a leaping catch of a two-point conversion in the back of the end zone to make it 45-29. Dickinson scored the final points of the game with 3:21 left.
 
The Warriors are back at David Person Field at Girardi Stadium on Saturday, Sept. 27, for a noon kickoff against Rowan University.
