MUNCIE — Dan LeFevour threw four touchdown passes, ran for a fifth score and became the all-time leading passer in Mid-American Conference history as he led Central Michigan to a 35-3 victory over Ball State on Wednesday night.
The senior quarterback ignored a steady rain to complete 25 of 28 passes for 344 yards for the Chippewas (8-2, 6-0) before taking a seat midway through the fourth quarter.
He threw touchdown passes of 3 and 11 yards to tight end David Blackburn, 82 yards to Antonio Brown and 10 yards to Bryan Anderson. He also ran 1 yard for a 14-0 lead in the second quarter.
LeFevour broke the MAC passing record of 11,903 yards established by Byron Leftwich of Marshall from 1999-2002.
LeFevour, who completed 10 of his first 12 passes, was 14 of 17 for 210 yards in the first half.
Ball State fell to 1-9, 1-5.
