Jameson Wang ran for two touchdowns for Cornell in a 15-12 win over Penn in their 127th meeting.
Wang ran 21 yards for the game’s first score in the second quarter, but the Quakers got a pair of Daniel Karrash field goals to trail 7-6 at intermission.
Penn took the lead in the third quarter when Jordan Niles blocked a Cornell punt and Mozi Bici recovered the ball in the end zone with 4:19 left.
Cornell (2-6, 1-4 Ivy League) came right back following the Penn (3-5, 1-4) kickoff and drove 75 yards in six plays to score the go-ahead touchdown on Wang’s 1-yard run with 1:08 left in the third quarter.

Aidan Sayin was 26 of 45 for 247 yards passing, but the Quakers managed just 78 yards rushing on 25 carries.
