Hampton 44, North Carolina A&T 7

HAMPTON, VA - It was plenty impressive that Jeremy Gilchrist returned three punts for touchdowns in 11 games last season, particularly since that number led the Football Championship Subdivision. Even more spectacular was Gilchrist returning two punts for touchdowns Saturday in a span of 1 minute, 59 seconds. His first, for 56 yards, gave Hampton University the lead in its Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference game against North Carolina A&T. His second, for 88 yards, turned the game into a rout before halftime as the Pirates crushed the Aggies 44-7.

The return touchdowns were the fourth for the Pirates within four quarters. Kevin Teel returned kickoffs 87 and 90 yards for touchdowns a week earlier in the Pirates' 38-27 win over Howard.
