NORWICH – The Norwich Cyclones B team stopped Rome 51-21 at Alumni Field Sunday.

Cameron Byrne scored on TD runs of 35 and eight yards on just three carries, Elijah Rodriguez had a 32-yard touchdown, and 103 yards rushing on eight carries.

Andrew Donahue had a one-yard TD run, and Seth Wessels scored a pair of TDs – a three-yard plunge and a brilliant 57-yard kickoff return to finish the Cyclones’ scoring.

Rodriguez kicked a two-point conversion and Tyler Rice added a point-after run.

On defense, Andrew Donahue had a big day, with Sebastien Pittsley, Tyler Jones, Ben McGillicuddy, James Jones, Cameron Marvin, Wessels, Ben Glanville, and Michael Squires leading the charge. Squires and Byrne both added interceptions.
