ECSU 22 - WSSU 19
Just when it looked like the Rams
had gotten back on the winning track,
the Elizabeth City State University
Vikings pulled a rabbit out of a hat and
scored a touchdown with four seconds
left for a 22-19 win.
Trailing 16-12 with under a minute
left in the game, Richard Huntley scored
on an 11-yard run and the extra point
gave the Rams a 22-16 lead with 54
seconds left. It looked like a celebration
would be in order, but ECSU had
different plans. Aided by several Ram
penalties, the Vikings moved the ball to
the Ram 30-yard line. Viking
quarterback Kenny Crump threw a short
pass to Aaron Murchinson who broke a
tackle, got good blocking upfield and
raced into the endzone for the go-ahead
score as the fans who braved the rain sat
in stunned silence at Bowman-Gray
Stadium.
Huntley turned in another strong
performance. He gained 201 yards on
33 carries and scored two touchdowns.
The Rams fell to 1-2 for the season.
WSSU 17 - LIVINGSTONE 17
The Rams blew another fourth
quarter lead and had to settle for a tie
against the Livingstone Blue Bears.
Trailing 14-0, going into the fourth
quarter, the Blue Bears scored on a
safety and Timothy McClain scored two
touchdowns to give Livingstone a 17-14
lead with just 1:12 left in the game. The
Rams drove 65 yards in seven plays to
the Bears’ 12 -yard line. With 5 seconds
remaining. Ram Coach Kermit Blount
choose to go for the tie instead of the
win. Milton Mooya’s 29-yard field goal
split the uprights for the tie.
Richard Huntley, who came into
the game averaging 225-yards a game,
rushed for 125-yards on 26 carries.
Livingstone outrushed the Rams 161-
158. The Rams’ record stands at 1-2-1
overall and 0-1-1 in the Cl A A.
WSSU 28 - JCSU 12
Coming off consecutive ties in
conference games, the Rams were
victorious over the Golden Bulls, 28 -
12.
Richard Huntley rushed for 282
yards and scored two touch downs. He
now has 1,277 yards rushing and nine
touchdowns in six games this season.
The Rams improved to 2-2-2 overall
and 1-1-2 in the Cl A A.
