DURHAM, North Carolina -- Junior Terrance West for 139 yards on 31 carries and scored two touchdowns as No. 4 Towson University avoided an upset bid by North Carolina Central (2-2) and won its eighth game in a row, a 35-17 victory over the Eagles at O’Kelly-Riddick Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
The Tigers, who outscored their opponents by a 132-33 margin in their first three games, didn’t clinch the win over North Carolina Central until freshman Darius Victor scored on a 10-yard run with 1:35 remaining in the game.
“We got a wake-up call,” admitted Coach Rob Ambrose. “We made more mistakes today than we did in our first three games. Nobody on our team played well and the players all know it. We won this game because we stayed together as a team and worked together. But we did enough to win and now we’re 4-0.”
