Aggie Kicker Carl Warrens rambles for some yardage after a bad snap Aggies Celebrate Homecoming With 30-22 Victory Over BC BY SAMUEL G. PUR YEAR JR. Chronicle Sports writer On last Saturday in Greens boro, in a sloppy contest, the North Carolina A<?T Aggies withstood a late Bethune Cookman rally to defeat the Wildcats 30-22 in front of 23,636 homecoming spectators. Both teams combined for 20 penalties totaling 173 yards, 10 fumbles and five interceptions. Bethune Cookman jumped out to an early lead. They took the opening kickoff and marched the length of the field in only two minutes. Wildcat run ning back Dereck Hall capped off the drive for the Wildcats on a 46 yard dash to the endzone. Midway through the first quar ter, the Aggies forced Wildcat punter Steve Kerrin to punt. Kerrin botched a punt giving the Aggies good field position. On. the very next play, Aggie quarterback Adrian Starks completed a 60 yard pass to Rudy Artis for a touchdown to tie the score at 7-7 with 4:40 remaining in the first quarter. After forcing a fumble, the Aggies tried to connect on another quick scoring opportunity but the wildcats were ready. Starks tried to complete a pass in the endzone but had it intercepted by a Wildcat defensive back. The Aggies moved the ball at will. They got the ball back after a Wildcat punt and began their attack. After almost giving the ball back to the Wildcats on a fumble, Starks completed his second touchdown of the day, on a 17 yard pass to James Bowden to give the Aggies a 14-7 lead. Before the end of the first half, the Aggies added another score on a James White 27 yard scamper that put the Aggies ahead for good. The Aggies led ? 1-7 at halftime. The Wildcats scored 15 unan swered points in the fourth quarter but couldn't catch the Aggies. Winston-Salem native Sam Hairston( Carver), had an outstand ing game for the Aggies. Hairston, a transfer from Albany State, had three six tackles, three of which, were sacks. The Aggies next game will be on next Saturday in Dover, DE against a tough Delaware State team.
