Livingstone rallies from slow start to pound Shaw

RALEIGH, North Carolina -- Needing to beat a winless Shaw team in order to stay in good standing in the CIAA’s Southern Division, Livingstone could not have gotten off to a worse start Saturday afternoon at Durham County Stadium.

Then the Blue Bears took a deep breath and went to work, reeling off 41 unanswered points en route to a 41-22 victory.

Down early, 14-0, Livingstone fought back with two touchdowns in the second period, although a missed extra point left the deficit at one point.

Shaw’s Marquise Grizzle returned the ensuing kickoff 80 yards and eight plays later, the home team was sitting at the two-yard line, ready to increase its lead.

Then the Blue Bears got a huge, game-changing break.
