Caden Bauer rounded out the scoring for The Haven in the first half with a booming 42-yard field goal.

In the second half, IUP tacked on 14 points and held Lock Haven scoreless to secure the victory.

Markel Morgan led the Bald Eagles’ defense with a career-high 11 tackles (six solo) and one pass breakup. Rocco Daugherty added seven tackles (five solo).
