BETHLEHEM, Pa. (AP) _ Phil Stambaugh threw for four touchdowns, and Jamal Burcher and Ronald Jean each rushed for over 100 yards and two scores as Lehigh extended its Division I-leading regular-season winning streak to 19 games with 62-8 rout Saturday of Holy Cross.

Lehigh (7-0, 2-0 Patriot) dominated on both sides of the ball in outgaining Holy Cross (2-5, 1-2) 528-242 in total yardage, recording five sacks and forcing six fumbles by the Crusaders' offense, one recovered by Lehigh's Matt Andrews 79 yards for a score.

Stambaugh led Lehigh's offense by hitting 18 of 28 passes for 272 yards and throwing no interceptions in less than three full quarters of play. He made completions to seven different receivers including a 64-yarder to Rick Moore with 4:26 left in the first half to give the Engineers a 21-0 lead.

Stambaugh then hit Josh Snyder as time expired in the half to give Lehigh, ranked eighth in the Division I-AA poll, a four touchdown-lead.

Jean ran for 107 yards and two 4-yard touchdown runs, while Burcher had 124 yards on six carries, including a 61-yard score with six seconds left in the game.

Brian Hall hit Kendy Hall with a 2-yard TD pass for Holy Cross' only score. The Crusaders suffered their worst loss since a 56-0 defeat by Temple in 1974.
