SAINT PAUL, MINN.—The 2022 Homecoming Game pitted the Hamline University Football team against Carleton at Klas Field on Saturday afternoon. Knights quarterback Jonathan Singleton had himself a day as he went 27-for-39 passing for 308 yards and three touchdowns, which propelled his team past the Pipers 45-12. Singleton broke the Carleton career record in touchdown passes this afternoon with his 53rd. The Knights racked up 554 yards of offense in the game.

Hamline's first loss of the 2022 campaign gives them a 2-1, 0-1 MIAC record, while Carleton stays undefeated at 3-0, 1-0 MIAC.

Carleton 45, Hamline 12

The Pipers found themselves in a 14-0 hole before they found the end zone early in the second quarter. They recovered a Knights fumbled punt return that gave them the ball back at Carleton's 45 yard line. Charlie Wilson hauled in a 34-yard pass from Alejandro Villanueva, to put Hamline at the 11-yard line. This led to Wilson's six-yard touchdown grab with 10:35 left in the second quarter, which made things 14-6.

Carleton stretched their lead to 45-6 before Hamline scored for the final time late in the third quarter. Ryan Lauterbach's 41-yard reception from Villanueva at the Carleton-49 put Hamline inside the red zone, which set up Charlie Wilson's four-yard touchdown run that cut the score to 45-12 with 4:27 left in the third, where things stayed final.

Wilson finished the day with seven catches for 110 yards and one touchdown for Hamline. Villanueva went 13-of-33 passing for 196 yards and one touchdown. Jevon Jones led the Pipers defense with 15 tackles, which included two for a loss of yardage. Ryan Kouri finished with a forced fumble, a pass breakup, and an interception for the Hamline secondary. Caleb Lueders racked up 174 yards of kickoff return yardage, which included a long of 46 yards.

Hamline will travel to St. Scholastica on Saturday, October 1 for a 1 p.m. start.
