Army backups come up big in 42-17 win over Colgate
WEST POINT, N.Y. -- — Jemel Jones ran for two touchdowns in his first start this season and Army defeated Colgate 42-17 on Saturday.

Jones' 1-yard TD capped an eight-minute drive to open the second half and Leo Lowin's interception set up Markel Johnson's 24-touchdown run for a 42-17 lead heading in the fourth quarter. Johnson came in with 19 yards on four carries this season.
Army, second in the nation in rushing at 286.6, had 281 yards by halftime including four TDs and led 28-17. The Black Knights finished with 467 yards offense, all on the ground.
