Catamounts Score Thrilling Upset Win over No. 17 Samford
Cullowhee, N.C. - Western Carolina tailback Detrez Newsome rumbled for a go-ahead touchdown, hitting the right pylon to put the Catamounts ahead with 93 seconds remaining in regulation on Saturday night at E.J. Whitmire Stadium / Bob Waters Field. But it wasn't until a last-second pass deflection would allow what remained of 12,018 fans to unleash a post-game celebration that was over a decade in the making.
Mercer at ETSU
Bucs rally past Mercer to take overtime victory, 26-23
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. – Down 20-10 early in the fourth quarter, the ETSU football team scored 10 unanswered points to force overtime with Southern Conference foe Mercer Saturday afternoon in front of a sold out crowd at their new on-campus home. In the extra period – after the Bears connected on a 29-yard field goal to take a 23-20 lead – ETSU junior quarterback Austin Herink (Cleveland) wasted little time, finding junior tailback Jajuan Stinson (Knoxville) wide open in the end zone on the Buccaneers first play of the extra period, giving ETSU a dramatic 26-23 win and its first SoCon victory of the season.
Furman at Colgate
Furman Rolls Past Colgate, 45-14
HAMILTON, N.Y. - P.J. Blazejowski passed for 251 yards and three touchdowns and Furman converted three turnovers into first half touchdowns to roll past Colgate, 45-14, in football action Saturday afternoon at Andy Kerr Stadium. The win was the first for Furman (1-3) under new head coach Clay Hendrix, who returned to his alma mater last December following 10 years as an assistant coach at the Air Force Academy. "It feels great to get that first victory," said Hendrix, who spent 19 years as a Paladin assistant (1988-06). "I could not be prouder of our kids. They came in and played really well. Defensively I don't know if we could have played much better against a productive, hard to defend offense. They just set the tone for the entire game, and offensively we did a good job of capitalizing on it in the first half."
