Shepherd took a 3-0 lead with 11:31 left in the first quarter when senior kicker Ricky Schmitt (Virginia Beach, VA/Salem) nailed a 23-yard field goal. The score was set up by an interception by senior outside linebacker Bobby Jarvis (Richmond, VA/Hermitage).

The Rams extended their lead to 10-0 when Chlebowski connected with senior wide receiver Rodney Jackson (Severn, MD/Meade) on a 29-yard scoring strike.

Chlebowski, who grabbed WVIAC Offensive Player of the Week accolades, teamed with senior wide receiver Chadd Wood (Monmouth Junction, NJ/Potomac State) with 7:37 left in the second quarter to up the Ram lead to 17-0.

Chlebowski tossed a 24-yard touchdown pass to Jackson with 4:26 left in the half to give the Rams a 24-0 advantage at the break.

Schmitt connected on a career-long 49-yard field goal with 2:02 left in the third quarter to give Shepherd a 27-0 lead.

Junior running back Dervon Wallace (Lusby, MD/Calvert), who rushed 17 times for a game-high 94 yards, danced through the Wesleyan defense for a 16-yard touchdown run with 11:56 left in the fourth quarter to increase the lead to 34-0.
