In a dominating perform ance, Shaw's defense lived up to its billing as one of the CIAA's best units, limiting Bowie State, who came into the contest averaging 155 rush ing yards per game, to 20 rush ing yards and 135 yards through the air. The Bears led 9-0 after one quarter on a safety and an 82 yard touchdown pass from Robinson to King. Bowie State cut the lead to 9-7 early in the second quarter when quar terback Jason Scott capped an 11 -play, 62-yard drive with a 15-yard touchdown pass to Anthony Green. Shaw responded on its next posses sion when Robinson connected with King again on a 52-yard scoring pass to push the Bears' lead to 16-7. Bowie State got what would be their last points of day on a 20-yard field by Michael Gagne with 4:10 remaining in the second quarter to cut the lead to 16-10. Shaw got a 22-yard field goal from Caleb Reid as time expired in the second quarter to take a 19 10 halftime lead. In the second half, it was all Shaw as the Bears outscored the Bulldogs 22-0 over the last two quarters to put an exclama tion point on a dominant win over the Bulldogs. With the win, Shaw improves to 3-2 overall and 2-0 in the conference heading into this Saturday's divisional matchup with cross-town rival Saint Augustine's. Bowie State's record drops to 2-2 and 1-1 in the CIAA. The Bulldogs will play host to Lincoln on Saturday in the Prince George's Classic in Bowie. Pho?o by Jeff Sides Here, I la Mumford is perform ing the long jump event at the Junior Olympics this past summer. Mumford finished seventh in the nation. Mumford from paf>i HI They were very fast. Ha is very fast. I like her athletic ability. She's a good runner." Young Mumford works hard to improve at tennis. It's a year-round activity for her. But she still finds time to play bas ketball and track. She was a member of Tri City Relays 2007 4x100 bantam girl's national championship group. She also performed extremely w?ll in the 2008 Junior Olympics in her main event ? the long jump. Mumford fin ished seventh in the nation in that event. Mumford also excels in basketball. She plays basket ball in the YBA league at the Winston Lake Family YMCA. She's helped Brian Leak &in three league championships. "She was one of my key players," Leak said. "Ila plays good defense for me. I really like her quickness and defense. She'll steal the ball from anybody. She kind of reminds me of Porsche Jones because she's not scared to play against anyone, especial ' ly guys." Worsley added: "I don't see. many kids like her. She does several sports. That's a very?good thing on her part to do a lot of sports. That helps." Young Mumford is defi nitely doing her thing in her sports of choice. It helps that her parents, coach Carlos and Mechelle Mumford, were both standout athletes when they were younger.' Carlos, who used to play tennis, was a standout basketball player at Winston-Salem State. Mumford is said to be one of the best bailers to play in Winston-Salem. Mechelle was a standout track and basketball performer in high school. She also ran track for one year at WSSU. "My daddy and mommy are my role models," said Ila Mumford, who's an A student. "They both used to play a lot of sports too. Hopefully, I can play for a long time. I don't know which sport I like the best. I can't really tell. It's equal. I think 1 might be better at track, though. But track really gets me in shape for the other sports. Maybe I can play tennis for a long time." Worsley added: "I can see her playing the game for the rest of her life. If she remains interested in it she can go off to college. Then, the sky is the limit." Hill from page HI coach Kermit Blount was a senior in high school. That's pretty interesting. I thought this season was supposed to be about Blount becoming the winningest coach in school history. Instead, it might become the worst season for any Ram coach in history. I'm just stating the facts. This week the Rams will try to earn a win against Howard ? another school some fans think WSSU can beat I'm pretty sure they won't win this game either. That will also be the Rams fourth-straight home game. I mean, the schedule was perfect for a winning season. But um... Then, the Rams will travel to play FAMU. host Bethune Cookman for homecoming and travel to Hampton. Those games will be followed by contests against Delaware State, Central and Norfolk State. Did you see a game the Rams might win in that group? the second year of their process, which means they have to add yet another year of waiting to be able to compete for a championship. That's a shame. Fans wouldn't have to wait on anything but the CIAA championship game if things were different. But they're not. And, no one is going Josh Howard to reverse the process. So, I guess Ram fans will simply have to hope for the best. But it doesn't look like anything good will happen this football season. J-Ho apologizes for comments I've received several emails, as well as phone calls about what my friend and NBA star Josh Howard said over some kind of Youtube video in July. The news of his actions were reported a couple weeks ago. I haven't even tried to explain why he said what he did because I didn't know. I just knew that he was going to have do some Like I said, they may beat NCCU. But I don't think so. Losing is just as contagious as winning in football. A football team really doesn't get better after a series of losses. They only get dis couraged and angry. Then, fingers begin to be pointed. 1 wonder how many of the players are blaming the recent firing of an offensive coordi nator or the head coach. Again, I'm just saying. This is life in Division I. Just because you have a good season one year doesn't mean that things will be good the next. And, vice versa. I don't know how many of you have heard, but Winston-Salem State is going to have to repeat major damage control arter seemingly disrespecting the national anthem at an Allen Iverson celebrity flag football game over the summer. The video prompted blistering criticisms, including some racially charged e mails that Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban posted on his blog. J-Ho took his first steps in correcting things on Monday when he apologized. Anthony Hill is the sports editor for The Chronicle. He can he reached at 722-8624 (ext. Ill) or ahill@wschroniclejcom.
