WSSU Notes: Rams could play in Bahamas in ’15

WINSTON-SALEM, North Carolina -- Winston-Salem State’s 2015 schedule is complete, but Athletics Director Tonia Walker said that there’s a chance the game against Tuskegee could be played in the Bahamas as part of the Bahamas HBCUX Classic.

The inaugural game of the classic will be Sept. 13, with Texas Southern taking on Central State.

WSSU will play Tuskegee this season at Bowman Gray Stadium.

“There was some interest this year in the Tuskegee game moving to the Bahamas,” Walker said. “But from a time frame, we just couldn’t do it. But there’s an opportunity next year to move that game to the Bahamas, it would be something we would look at doing.”

Walker said that WSSU’s nonconference games next season will be at UNC Pembroke, against Valdosta State in Atlanta and, for now, at Tuskegee.
