BOSTON (AP) - Former walk-on kicker Steve Aponavicius became
Boston College's all-time scoring leader in the Eagles' 31-10 win
over Central Michigan on Saturday.

Montel Harris finished with 136 yards rushing on 27 carries and
two 3-yard scoring runs for the Eagles (6-3), who improved to 6-0
at home. BC snapped the Chippewas' (7-2) seven-game winning streak
- their best since consecutive seasons with eight-game streaks from
1979-1980.

Aponavicius had an 18-yard field goal and four extra points,
giving him 267 total points to surpass place-kicker Brian Lowe's
(1986-89) mark of 262.

Dave Shinskie was 18-for-28 passing for 262 yards and a
touchdown for the Eagles, who became bowl-eligible for 10th
consecutive season.
