PRINCETON, N.J. (AP) John Lovett threw for a touchdown and ran for another as Princeton handed Penn its first Ivy League loss, 28-0 on Saturday.

Lovett was 6-for-9 passing for 63 yards, had 13 carries for 46 yards, and caught two passes for 17 yards. Lovett has now accounted for 25 touchdowns this season.

Princeton (6-2, 4-1) started scoring early when Jesper Horsted blocked Hunter Kelly's punt after Penn (5-3, 4-1) went three and out on its first drive. Jeremiah Taylor returned the blocked punt 14 yards for a 6-0 lead.

The Tigers' full-time quarterback, Chad Kanoff, engineered a 12-play, 78-yard drive that ended when Lovett crashed in from a yard out to make it 13-0 in the second.

In the third, Lovett passed 4 yards to James Frusciante, and Kanoff converted the 2-point conversion on a pass to Frusciante for a 21-0 lead.

Alek Torgersen led Penn (5-3, 4-1) with 179 yards passing and 46 rushing.
