BAUMHOLDER, Germany — Desmond Isadore and Olando Square each rushed two touchdowns and more than 100 yards Saturday as Baumholder thumped European Division III runner-up London Central 40-20 in the 2002 opener for both teams.

Isadore carried the ball 22 times for 185 yards and scored on runs of 8 and 28 yards in the nonconference matchup. Square rushed 13 times for 104 yards and found the end zone on first-quarter jaunts of 43 and 11 yards. Baumholder’s ground game rolled up 352 yards.

Baumholder senior quarterback Matt Calabria also had a hand in two scores. He plunged in from the 1-yard line with 55 seconds left in the half to give the Bucs a 26-13 lead, then hit 5-foot-2, 95-pound freshman Albert Mouton with a 12-yard scoring pass in the fourth period.

London Central quarterback Mike Clark figured in all three of his team’s touchdowns, running 2 yards for a score before hitting Walter Coleman with TD passes of 18 and 40 yards. Clark finished the game seven-of-12 for 155 yards, with Coleman catching six of them for 106 yards.

Baumholder (1-0) travels to Aviano on Saturday for another nonconference game; London Central will play host to Brussels in a III-North conference game.

In other non-conference games Saturday:

Brussels 19, Giessen 6

GIESSEN, Germany — Marc Silos kicked a pair of field goals and ran for a touchdown as Brussels took advantage of six turnovers.

Silos sandwiched field goals of 20 and 25 yards around a 1-yard TD run as the Brigands, after spending most of the first half in Giessen’s end of the field, took a 12-0 halftime lead.

The Griffins cut the deficit in half early in the third quarter after Michael Moore recovered a Brussels fumble. On Giessen’s first play from scrimmage after the recovery, Anthony Moore, behind pulling guard Jerrid Pilcher, swept in for a 57-yard run.

Giessen was driving for the tying score in the final period when Travis Keeton’s second interception of the game set up Andrew Isbel’s 3-yard run for the clinching TD. Silos added the extra point.

Isbel led all rushers with 84 yards. Isbel, brother Brian Isbel and J.R. Blandon grabbed fumbles for the Brigands. Kyle Cox added an interception.

Giessen’s defense got sacks from Tim Hill and John Castillo, an interception from Jerrell Connerly and eight solo tackles each from Gilberto De Leon and Elliott Gonzalez.

Brussels (1-0) will play host to defending Division III-North champion London Central on Saturday.

ISB 34, Hanau 12

BRUSSELS, Belgium — The defending European Division II champions used a pair of second-half touchdowns to pull away from the visiting Panthers.

Quarterback Will Hendrickson ran 3 yards for one TD and hit Joe Rosen with a 22-yard pass for a second as the Raiders (1-0) built a 14-0 first-period lead.

Hanau (0-1) answered with a 7-yard touchdown pass from Gary Ortiz to Robert Scott to cut the gap to 14-6, only to see Matthew Gett return the ensuing kickoff 75 yards to restore ISB’s 14-point edge. Ortiz returned the favor, taking the ISB kick 69 yards to paydirt.

ISB wrapped up the game on Gett’s 19-yard TD run in the third quarter and Chris Perez’s 13-yard scoring run in the fourth.

Gett rushed 18 times for 119 yards. Rosen had 48 receiving yards on three of the four passes Hendrickson completed. Hendrickson had 53 yards passing.

The ISB defense had 11 solo tackles by linebacker Josh Hendrickson and eight from lineman Tony Bernard. Bernard added a fumble recovery, as did Philip Lipman. Sophomore Danny Kubis and Alex Davey-Thompson each had sacks.

ISB travels to Mannheim for another nonconference game on Friday night; Bitburg will play host to Hanau on Saturday.
