The football team opens its 2014 season with a trip to Washington to face Georgetown University on Saturday.

Moving the ball against the football team’s defense has been difficult for opponents in recent years, but this season’s unit will need to replace some key cogs on the line and in the backfield in order to keep the stout tradition alive. Bruno’s defense held offenses to the fewest yards per game ...
With no returning offensive starters, the football team needs to adapt quickly this season. But with talent all over the field, the Bears’ attack could make more noise than some people expect.

Yale running back Deon Randall drove through the teeth of the Bears’ defense on his way to a go-ahead, 32-yard touchdown with 19 seconds remaining in Saturday’s game in New Haven to propel Yale over Brown — 24-17 — for the first time since 2010. Randall’s knockout punch extinguished any lingering ...
With its season back on track after two consecutive Ivy League wins, Bruno eyes its first winning conference record, an outcome that hinges on defeating Yale Saturday.
