Still no TDs for Norfolk State in 17-0 loss to Liberty

NORFOLK, Virginia  -- Norfolk State’s offense was significantly livelier Saturday, but the Spartans again couldn’t manage to find the end zone. And there’s only so much a stout defense can do.
Josh Woodrum completed 14 of 25 passes for 208 yards and a touchdown to lead Liberty to a 17-0 non-conference win over NSU at Dick Price Stadium.
Spartans quarterback Terrance Ervin, a true freshman making his first career start, completed 10 of 16 passes for 56 yards and injected much-needed life into a flat unit. But he threw an interception and was sacked six times by an aggressive, relentless defense as the Spartans (0-2) lost their seventh straight non-MEAC contest, dating to 2012.
NSU coach Pete Adrian said he was encouraged by how Ervin, who starred at L.C. Bird High in Chesterfield, directed the offense. But the Spartans, he said, have to finish drives.
