Winston-Salem State playing better football through team chemistry

WINSTON-SALEM, North Carolina -- It’s been a long journey for Winston-Salem State, but the light at the end of the tunnel is getting a little brighter.

That light would be the CIAA’s championship game next month, and the Rams are in good shape to get there. A win Saturday at Bowman Gray Stadium against winless Shaw (0-8) would put them a step closer to the Southern Division title.

“We have come a long way since the early part of our season,” punter Will Johnson said Tuesday. “We’ve fought through some adversity early on, but we’ve come a long way.”

The Rams (4-4, 4-1 CIAA) have won three in a row, thanks to the nerve-wracking 23-21 win over Livingstone on Saturday. A missed field-goal attempt with 20 seconds to go by the Blue Bears handed the Rams the victory, and it kept their division title hopes alive.
