Story From: Associated Press

BOSTON - Dave Shinskie rebounded from an interception on the first play of the season by throwing touchdowns on consecutive first-quarter drives and Boston College - bolstered by the return of cancer-survivor Mark Herzlich - rolled past Weber State 38-20 on Saturday in the schools' season opener.

Herzlich, a linebacker and the 2008 Atlantic Coast Conference defensive player of the year, missed the 2009 season as he underwent treatment for Ewing's Sarcoma, a rare form of bone cancer.
