CRESTVIEW HILLS, KY - Johns Hopkins junior Alex Lachman knew his game-winning 43-yard field goal was good as soon as he hit it.
"I was sprinting in the other direction when it went through" he noted of the kick, which lifted the visiting Blue Jays to a stunning 31-29 upset of 10th-ranked and previously unbeaten Thomas More in the second round of the NCAA Division III playoffs.
The next stop for Johns Hopkins is the NCAA quarterfinals and a date with third-ranked Wesley (DE), which knocked off visiting Mississippi College, 43-9, on Saturday. It's the second straight road victory against an undeated team in the playoffs for the Blue Jays, who will make the much shorter trip to Dover, Delaware for the quarterfinal game against Wesley.
