Offensive explosion powers JCSU Football to first win of the season

OXFORD, Pennsylvania  --  Johnson C. Smith's football team scored on three straight possessions in the second quarter to defeat Lincoln (Pa) 50-13, Saturday afternoon.

The Golden Bulls explosion began with a second period onslaught that found JCSU scoring more points in a quarter than it had in some entire games this season.

After a scoreless first quarter, the stampede began at 10:42 in the second quarter when Todd Powers recovered a Lincoln fumble in the end zone to put JCSU up 7-0.

On its next possession, JCSU went 60 yards in nine plays with Desean Binyard finishing the drive with a four-yard touchdown run. A blocked PAT attempt left the Golden Bulls with a 13-0 lead.

Following a Lincoln punt, JCSU completed a 50 yard drive with Antonio Wallace finding Markel Freeman for a 18 yard touchdown. Wallace's two-point connection to Desmond Dozier pushed the Golden Bull lead to 21-0 going into halftime.

JCSU would hit paydirt two more times in the third quarter on Wallace passes to Reginald Bryant (11 yards) and Miles Kelley (10 yards) to push their lead to 36-0.
