NEW HAVEN, Conn. (AP) Cameron Nizialek kicked a career-long 40-yard field goal and ran 13 yards for a score on a fake field goal Saturday to help Columbia win its first Ivy League game since 2012, 17-7 over Yale.
Yale's Jason Alessi returned a punt 80 yards for a score to give the Bulldogs a 7-0 lead early in the first quarter, but Skyler Mornhinweg hit Hank Trumbull for a 7-yard touchdown to tie it with 5:30 left in the first half.
Nizialek's field goal gave Columbia (2-5, 1-3) a 10-7 lead with 9:38 left in the third quarter.
Trevor McDonagh pitched to Nizialek, who ran 13 yards for a touchdown on a fake field goal to make it 17-7 with 13:28 remaining.
Yale (4-3, 1-3), which came into the game averaging 405 total yards and more than 21 first downs per game, finished with 120 yards and five first downs - both season lows.
