BETHLEHEM, Pa. (AP) Cole Smith passed for 412 yards and three touchdowns, and Princeton Tigers beat Lehigh Mountain Hawks 32-0 on Saturday.
Smith had scoring passes of 34, 42 and 52 yards to build a 29-0 lead midway through the third quarter. Smith finished with the fourth most single-game passing yards in program history.
Jacob Birmelin caught eight passes for 139 yards and a score, and Andrei Iosivas added 117 yards receiving and two touchdowns on four catches for Princeton (1-0). Collin Eaddy rushed for 70 yards and a score.
It was Princeton's first game since Nov. 23, 2019 as the Ivy League did not participate in athletic competition during the 2020-21 academic year. The Tigers were named the preseason league favorite by Ivy media members, receiving eight of 16 first-place votes.
Lehigh (0-3) was held to 92 total yards, including minus-25 rushing. The Mountain Hawks had just seven first downs.
Lehigh has been outscored 111-6 this season - with losses to ranked Villanova and Richmond.
