WORCESTER, Mass. (AP) Jack Heneghan passed for 240 yards and one touchdown and Dartmouth's defense forced four turnovers in a 35-10 win over Holy Cross on Saturday.

Holy Cross took a 7-0 lead on the first possession of the game, but Hunter Hagdorn answered with a 10-yard TD run on the ensuing possession for Dartmouth (2-0) to tie it. After forcing a Holy Cross fumble, the Big Green went 61 yards in three plays, with Miles Smith ripping off a 35-yard scoring run to give Dartmouth a 14-7 lead late in the first quarter.

Just before the half, Holy Cross (1-3) punter A.J. Wells couldn't handle the snap in his own end zone, and Dart Darius George fell on it to give Dartmouth a 14-point lead.

Ryder Stone's 4-yard run capped Dartmouth's 28-point spree, and Heneghan's 10-yard pass to Cameron Skaff rounded out the Big Green scoring.
