SCSU Bulldogs begin MEAC play looking for a championship

ORANGEBURG, South Carolina  -- Andrew Carter was still waiting on his trophy Thursday.

The South Carolina State defensive end was named the team’s MVP for the 12th annual Palmetto Capital City Classic last Saturday at Williams-Brice Stadium in Columbia. His two sacks and seven tackles against Benedict College was part of a physical, intimidating tone set by the defensive line in the 59-6 rout.

Organizers did not have a trophy available to present Carter for his performance. At Thursday’s Orangeburg Touchdown Club meeting, Classic committee member Willie Jeffries promised the senior Bulldog he would soon receive his hardware.

What would be even more rewarding for Carter is another Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference championship. After four non-conference games, he believes the Bulldogs (2-2) are now ready to accomplish that mission starting this afternoon at Oliver C. Dawson Stadium against Hampton (0-4).
