History: Today's game marks the fifth meeting all-time on the gridiron between the two schools. Last season at Toppa Field, Salve Regina University football scored a program record 49 first-half points en route to a 49-0 win over visiting Privateers of SUNY Maritime College in New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) action. The Seahawks celebrated Senior Day before the contest - (22) Joshua Adams, Francisco Aguero, Avery Arno, Sam Capodice, Garrett DeForest, Jacob Dubois, Griffin Gallati, Matt Heverin, Ryan Janz, Drew Keiran, Matthew Lavoie, Zachary Ludemann, Luke Maruca, Michael Morin, Sean Pampin, Jack Patalano, Jacob Perez, Joe Saccone, Jeff Seganos Jr., Cain Smith, Christopher Tall, Jack Zingaro. Justan Luzzi and Thomas Cea Jr. both had a pair of rushing touchdowns while quarterback Jake Stack completed a pair of touchdown passes to Josh Letellier and Marcelino La Bella, respectively. Stack connected on 10-of-14 passing for 147 yards in just first-half action. Special teams got in on the scoring as senior Garrett DeForest blocked a Privateer punt and scooped up the loose ball for a 12-yard scamper to the endzone. After allowing double-digit points the last two weekends, the Seahawks recorded their third shutout of the season. Maritime (N.Y.) (5-4, 3-3 NEWMAC) managed 162 total yards and just 20 net yards rushing. Salve Regina had nine tackles for losses including five sacks. Salve Regina leads the all-time series, 3-2.
