DAYTON, Ohio - The Marist football team battled back from a 17-point halftime deficit and led in the fourth quarter, but fell 28-21 at Dayton in a Pioneer Football League game on Saturday at Welcome Stadium.

Marcellus Calhoun scored three rushing touchdowns for the Red Foxes, and 156 yards on 20 carries. Calhoun gained 143 yards in the second half.

Dayton jumped out to a 17-0 halftime lead. Dayton led 7-0 before running an offensive play, as Christian Searles intercepted a pass on Marist's first drive and returned it 50 yards for a touchdown. William Will added a 37-yard field goal with 1:56 left in the first quarter, and a 16-yard touchdown run by Jack Adams just 32 to seconds into the second quarter gave the Flyers a three-score advantage.

Dayton went three-and-out on the first offensive series of the second half, and a 41-yard punt return by Matt Tralli set Marist up at the Dayton 35. Calhoun broke a 28-yard run on the first play of the drive, and his seven-yard touchdown run on the next play made the score 17-7. Marist took over at the Dayton 45 on its next series, and Calhoun had a 36-yard run on the first play of the drive. On fourth-and-goal from the 3, Calhoun was hit at the line of scrimmage, but burrowed forward for a touchdown to make the score 17-14.

With 7:01 to play, and Dayton holding a 20-14 lead, fifth-year senior free safety Zach Adler recovered a fumble at the Marist 21. On third-and-three from the Dayton 31, sophomore quarterback Michael White completed a 28-yard pass to Calhoun, and a personal foul moved the ball to the Dayton 1. Calhoun's one-yard touchdown – his third of the game -- on the next play, followed by Maccarone's point after, gave Marist the lead. But Dayton went 66 yards on six plays on its ensuing drive, which culminated in a seven-yard rushing touchdown on a quarterback keeper by Alex Jeske with 53 seconds to play. Marist drove to the Dayton 31 with five seconds remaining, but a last-ditch pass fell incomplete.

Marist gained 504 yards in the game. White threw for 307, as he finished 28-for-52 but had three interceptions. His completion total was tied for second-highest in a game in program history. Tralli caught seven passes for a career-high 109 yards. In addition to his fumble recovery, Adler's eight tackles tied for the team lead with fifth-year senior defensive end Demetrius Williams.

Marist fell to 5-5 overall and 4-3 in the PFL. Dayton is now 10-0 overall and 7-0 in the PFL. The Flyers clinched the PFL championship with Saturday's victory.

Marist will close out its season on Saturday, Nov. 21 at Tenney Stadium against Morehead State at 1 p.m. Prior to the game, the program's senior class will be honored. Tickets are on sale at GoRedFoxes.com.
