ANDOVER — Just three plays into the game and Phillips already had its game plan thrown out the window against arch-rival Phillips Exeter.

URBANIK LEADS PHILLIPS

WORCESTER — Ex-Pinkerton star TJ Urbanik had a big day for Phillips, totaling 203 yards of total offense and three touchdowns to lead the Big Blue to a 34-28 win over Worcester Academy.

ANDOVER — Post-grad T.J. Urbanik from Pinkerton Academy took the opening kickoff back for a score and Phillips cruised past Deerfield 44-22 for its first win of the season.

Will Sirmon (10 carries, 201 yards, 3 TDs) added a 64-yard TD run later in the quarter and he added two long runs in the third. Urbanik gave the Big Blue (1-5) a 37-0 lead on a 4-yard run late in the third. 

Phillips Academy allowed three first quarter touchdowns, and could not recover on the way to a 49-7 loss to Choate.

"Choate is a very, very good team," said Phillips coach Leon Modeste. "They haven't lost in about 2 ½ years and you can see why. We knew we faced a very tough matchup, and today we were overmatched. They are excellent."

WINDSOR, Ct. — Phillips found themselves only down three midway through the fourth quarter, but a Loomis Chaffe 3-yard touchdown run by Andre Beckett sealed the 20-10 win for Loomis.

Phillips (0-1) got a good game from quarterback Stephen Hedburg, who threw for 215 yards on 16-of-30 passing and also rushed for a touchdown. Pinkerton transfer running back T.J. Urbanik had 51 all-purpose yards, catching four passes for 49 yards. Austin Meyers had a good day receiving for Phillips, racking up 115 yards on eight receptions.
