Virginia State reassigns Faison

ETTRICK, Virginia  --  Virginia State has reassigned football coach Andrew Faison to other duties within the university, athletic director Peggy Davis announced Tuesday.

Faison went 58-53 over the course of 11 seasons with the Trojans.

"We thank [Faison] for his dedicated loyalty to Virginia State University and our student-athletes," Davis said.

Virginia State, picked to finish third in the CIAA Northern Division in 2012, finished at 4-6 overall and 3-4 in conference play.

Faison led the Trojans to a division title - and an appearance in the CIAA championship game - in 2010.

Virginia State, which lost 14-7 to Shaw in the 2010 conference title game, has not won a CIAA championship since 1996.

The Trojans opened the season 1-3 and suffered a 19-14 loss at archrival Virginia Union on Nov. 3.
