Chowan receives drubbing by Lenoir-Rhyne

HICKORY, N.C. -- If there was any question whether the Lenoir-Rhyne University Bears could score points, their season-opener on Saturday night put those concerns to rest. L-R scored the game’s first 28 points and cruised to a 59-10 win over the Chowan Hawks in the first meeting between the two teams at Moretz Stadium.

Quarterback Major Herron completed four of six passes for 69 yards with one interception to lead the Bears (1-0). Herron also had a hand in L-R’s ground attack, with 101 yards and three scores on 14 carries. “I thought Major played smart, made his reads and protected the ball well,” Bears head coach Fred Goldsmith said.

“I was pleased with how he ran the team.” Fullback Anthony Silvers added a touchdown and 101 yards on 11 rushes. Former Bandys High standout Le’Quan McCorkle ran 16 times for 84 of the Bears’ 513 rushing yards.
