Winston-Salem State Rams going to CIAA title game

WINSTON-SALEM, North Carolina -- Those who may have given up on Winston-Salem State’s long-standing dominance in the CIAA may have to get back on the bandwagon.

Those resilient Rams proved that in a big way Saturday afternoon with a hard-fought 24-22 win over feisty Fayetteville State in front of 4,500 soggy fans at Bowman Gray Stadium.

The reward is their fifth straight Southern Division championship and yet another trip to the CIAA championship game.
But it wasn’t easy.

Nothing has come easy for the Rams this season, who evened their record at 5-5 but improved to 5-2 in the division. They will play Bowie State on Saturday in Durham at 2 p.m. in the CIAA championship game.

“Our prayers were answered,” coach Kienus Boulware of the Rams. “We somehow got out of here with a win.”
