PULLMAN, Wash. (AP) — Zevi Eckhaus threw a touchdown pass before running for two scores and Washington State cruised to a 28-3 victory over Louisiana Tech on Saturday night.
Eckhaus finished off the first possession for Washington State (5-5) with a 23-yard touchdown pass to Joshua Meredith and the Cougars led 7-0 after one quarter.
Eckhaus ran it in from the 7-yard line on a keeper for 14-0 advantage. Drew Henderson missed a 56-yard field goal on the final play of the half, but the Cougars jumped offside and Henderson nailed a second-chance 51-yarder to get Louisiana Tech (5-5) on the scoreboard.
Eckhaus scored on a 1-yard run early in the fourth quarter to finish a 14-play, 66-yard drive that began in the third period and took 8:39 off the clock.
Kirby Vorhees capped the scoring with a 19-yard touchdown run with 1:12 remaining and finished with 76 yards on 16 carries.
