N.C.A & T Aggies go to 2-0 with win over WSSU Rams

Coach Lee Fobbs is beaming after a 2-0 start to the Aggie season.

Box Score

GREENSBORO -- It's a streak -- a winning streak for N.C. A&T. The offense scored early in the fourth quarter to give the Aggies breathing room and the defense made a late game, goal-line stand to protect that lead, as the Aggies came away with a 14-8 victory over Winston-Salem State on Saturday at Aggies Stadium.

After 27 straight losses, the victory gives A&T a 2-0 record to start the season and consecutive wins since 2005. After two Division II opponents at home, the Aggies now travel to Norfolk State next week, but coach Lee Fobbs knows that this year's version of the Aggies is much more prepared for their MEAC opener than they have been in the past.

"They believe that it (winning) is going to happen," Fobbs said. "It was all about effort, the effort they put in tonight and back on Tuesday and Wednesday. We have to stay on the right path. I just have a plan and we are working that plan."
