Raleigh, N.C.- The Virginia State University football team dominated on all three sides of the ball as they defeated St. Augustine's University 55-12. As a team the Trojans rushed for just under 200 yards on offense.  

VSU scored first as they capped off a 10 play 86-yard drive with a 30-yard pass from Steve Williams to Malik Hunter. SAU would answer four drives later as they returned a punt 50 yards for a touchdown, but would miss the PAT.

They would score on a four-play drive with Williams second passing touchdown this one to Roy Jackson III.

Finally, Rayquon Smith got in on the action capping off a 12-play drive with a five-yard touchdown run. 

After all, said and done the score stood at 34-6 after three quarters. To start the fourth quarter scoring Quedrion Miles would pick off the Falcons QB and run it back for a touchdown. The Falcons would get their first points on offense as they drove down the field with a 12 play 60-yard drive capped off with a one-yard touchdown run.
