That’s because the Bears have won their last two conference games, defeating Florida A&M, 34-21, on Oct. 5 and North Carolina Central, 34-22, last Saturday. Those victories have helped Morgan State (2-5 overall and 2-1 in the MEAC) move to a tie with Hampton for fourth place in the league.
“It was a great win for us,” coach Donald Hill-Eley said of Saturday’s result against the Eagles during a conference call organized by the MEAC on Tuesday morning. “As we’ve said before, we want to do well in conference play. You want to do well in all your games, but as we were waiting on the maturity from these guys, we wanted to do well in the conference. That win keeps us elevated in the conference and keeps things in perspective for whatever may happen.”
There was some concern that a bye week that separated the team’s victories could cause some rust. But the Bears scored the first 21 points against North Carolina Central, and Hill-Eley was pleased to see that the momentum was still there.
