WINSTON-SALEM, North Carolina -- Winston-Salem State has a tangible goal it can reach this weekend.
If the Rams beat Shaw at Durham County Stadium on Saturday they will clinch
the CIAA Southern Division title for the second straight season and will punch
their ticket to the CIAA championship game.
The Rams (8-0, 5-0 CIAA) are playing their best football of the season, as
they showed in a 58-0 rout of Livingstone last Saturday. They have won 13
straight conference games over the last two seasons and are ranked No. 2 in NCAA
Division II.
"We are playing for a little more this week," Coach Connell Maynor said.
"We've been playing for something every week because we want to keep
winning…."
Maynor said that while it would be nice to clinch a spot in the CIAA title
game, that's not the ultimate goal.
"You have to keep winning to get to the national-championship game and that's
what our goal is every week," Maynor said.
