CIAA teams trying to catch up to WSSU

WINSTON-SALEM, North Carolina -- There’s little doubt that any other CIAA team will have to go through fifth-ranked Winston-Salem State to win the conference championship.

The Rams, who rejoined the conference in 2010, have won the last two CIAA titles rather easily and catching them won’t be easy.

"What we have to do is start doing the things that got Winston where they are now,” Coach Robert Massey of Shaw said.

The Rams are 22-2 against CIAA teams (including two championship-game wins) in Coach Connell Maynor’s three seasons and were the preseason favorites in the coaches’ poll. They’ll be trying for the school’s 11th CIAA title overall and to become the first program to win three straight CIAA titles since Hampton did it from 1992 to 1994.
