CIAA Football Roundup Winston-Salem State Rams “Lookina fiood” Special To The Post mn&iou-aaiem continued to look like a poor choice for a C1AA 6th place finish as they demolished Hampton Institute 34-6 in their initial run for the CIAA throne room Virginia Union unleashed its scoring power while dominat ing the sometimes trouble some Fisk 55-0. Saint Paul’s was again the victim of a squeaker, losing to Bowie State 8-6. The sports writer who picked Norfolk State first and Living stone second looked good Sat urday as Livingstone lost a heartbreaker 14-13 in the last minutes of the game. Elizabeth City led North Carolina Central much of the game 6-0, but a couple of miscues led to a 19-6 lost. However, the Vikings clearly demonstrated they are on their way back. Shaw University had some what of an easy victory as Knoxville College forfeited to them 2-0. Knoxville attempted to change the game time from 2 p.m. to 7 p.m. after signing a contract to start at 2 p.m. A strange case, considering the fact it was discussed by both coaches face to face a week before.

Union’s defense trapped Fisk for 4 safeties and hied them to only 2 yards rushing. Judge Thomas who had his troubles getting on track last week carried the ball 23 times for 86 yards and two touch downs. Union’s strong punting game by Michael Croley who averaged 40.8 yards per kick kept Fisk deep in their own territory allowing Union’s de fense to dominate. Fayetteville State, plagued by injuries, suffered a 21-19 lose to Albany State. Fayetteville jumped off to a fast start picking up a fumble on the Albany’s 13 early in the first quarter and turning it into a 6-0 score.
