GREENVILLE, S.C. -- Jordan Sorrells threw three touchdown passes to lead Furman to a 35-10 win against Chattanooga on Saturday.

Sorrells completed 12 of 20 passes for 224 yards and no interceptions for the Paladins (3-1, 1-0 Southern Conference). Chris Truss caught three passes for 158 yards and a touchdown.

Mike Brown put the Paladins on the board first with a 2-yard touchdown run at the 12:17 mark of the first quarter, and Masharn Austin recovered a blocked punt for a touchdown to give Furman a 14-0 lead at the start of the second quarter. Craig Camay hit a 33-yard field goal for the Moccasins (1-4, 0-1) to make it 14-3 at the half.

In the third quarter, Sorrells connected with Chris Truss on a 69-yard touchdown pass and Larry Heddon on a 19-yard passing score to extend Furman's lead to 28-3.

Erroll Wynn's 3-yard touchdown run was a late highlight for Chattanooga, but was matched by Sorrells' touchdown pass of 5 yards to Seth Skogen to seal the Furman victory.
