Morgan State Pitch and Catch Still An All-Time Top 10 Play

WINSTON-SALEM, North Carolina -- During Morgan State's 21-7 win over Winston-Salem State on September 20, 2008, the Bears' Wide Receiver Edwin Baptiste made one of the greatest pass catches ever caught on tape. Lucky there was a video camera on the play, as only 3,066 fans were at Bowman-Gray Stadium on that particular afternoon.

Baptiste catch became an instant sensation on ESPN and was the #1 Play of the Week. "The Catch" has had over 4.99 million views since posted on YouTube in 2008, and is considered one of the ten greatest football catches of all time. 

But, who remember the name of the Morgan State QB that threw that pass to Baptiste?
