Stillman ends 2012 season with 28-26 homecoming win against Concordia-Selma

TUSCALOOSA, Alabama --- Since Sunday, the theme surrounding homecoming activities at Stillman was, "Stillman: Soaring". As the week closed out, indeed the Tigers needed to soar to put a more than favorable cap on the season.

Following the lead of senior wide receiver Damian Ford, the Tigers downed Concordia-Selma 28-26 Saturday afternoon at Stillman Stadium.

The senior from Birmingham scored on two pass plays and a punt return as the Tigers avenged last season's homecoming defeat.

Stillman (6-5) took the opening drive and marched 65 yards on six plays, ending the drive with a 24-yard pass play from freshman Joshua Straughan to senior Damian Ford. Concordia would answer with a 12-play, 64-yard drive ending with quarterback Keith Ray running in from three yards out. The Hornets (5-4) would score again on a 79-yard pass play from Ray to Jeremy Morris to give Concordia a 12-7 lead at the end of the first quarter.

Late in the second quarter, senior receiver Jamal Rodman scored on a 30-yard pass and catch to put Stillman in front 14-12. However, the Hornets would get a late score, a 15-yard pass play from Ray to David Hampton with 19 seconds remaining in the half. Concordia took a 18-14 lead into the locker room at halftime.
