CHARLOTTE, North Carolina -- Keahn Wallace hasn’t forgotten his first encounter against cross-county rival Davidson.
In 2011 as a Johnson C. Smith freshman, Wallace completed 11-of-29 passes for 168 yards and a touchdown in Davidson’s 35-7 victory. His counterpart, Jonathan Carkhuff, had a field day, passing for 427 yards and five touchdowns. Two scores went to receiver Lanny Funsten, who caught seven passes for a career-best 195 yards, including a school-record 99-yarder.
“They snuck up on us my freshman year and they beat us pretty bad,” quarterback Keahn Wallace said. “I doubt that will happen this year.”
Wallace and the Golden Bulls will get their chance to prove it Saturday at McGirt Field. Davidson and JCSU have played three times, with Davidson winning the last two. This year, the teams are off to decidedly different starts, with the Golden Bulls 2-0 while the Wildcats are 0-2 after a 34-18 loss to Division II Lenoir-Rhyne last week in Davidson’s home opener.
