The football hangs in midair after Western New England University’s game-tying extra point was blocked by Anthony M. Emberley ‘17 with 42 seconds left in the game on Saturday night. Both teams entered the contest undefeated and despite trailing 21-0 in the first half, WNEU fought back to tie the game at 28-28 in the third quarter. After scoring their fifth touchdown WNEU had a chance to even the score at 35-35 with less than one minute remaining, but Emberley’s block dashed WNEU’s hopes of sending the game into overtime and left MIT with a 6-0 record.
