HANOVER, Ind. (AP) - Ethan Loss returned the second-half kickoff for a 90-yard touchdown and Butler beat Division III-member Hanover 16-7 on Saturday.
Butler (2-1) leads the series with Hanover (0-2) 23-1-1, with the first meeting coming in 1887. Last season, Butler passed for three touchdowns and added four on the ground in a 53-0 win over Hanover.
Loss also had four catches for 68 yards against Hanover. He was coming off a career-high 106 yards receiving last week against Truman State - the first 100-yard game of his Butler career.
Jarrin Alley threw for 178 yards with an interception for Butler. Gabe Passini rushed for 55 yards, including a 10-yard touchdown for a 10-7 lead at the break.
Eian Roudebush threw for 109 yards with a touchdown for Hanover. Don Dunning rushed for 60 yards on 11 carries. Curbrian Shelby added 59 yards receiving and a touchdown.
Butler held Hanover to just 12 first downs and 158 total yards.
It was the second win for coach Kevin Lynch - both at Butler and as a head coach. He was hired in December after serving as Ball State's offensive play caller last year.
