Benedict hosts Edward Waters in South Carolina with both teams trying to snap a two-game losing streak on Thursday in college football.
Benedict looks for its first win of the season on Thursday night when it hosts Edward Waters for its third game of the season. The Tigers were only able to muster one score in their opener against Virginia State in Canton, Ohio for the Black College Hall of Fame Classic. Things looked much better last week in their game against Lane College, but the results were the same, dropping to the Dragons 32-27.
The Dragons’ rushing attack was just too much for Benedict, as the Tigers gave up 242 yards and three touchdowns on the ground. Late in the game, Benedict went for it on a 4th-and-2, but weren’t able to convert from its own 10-yard-line. Lane College was able to drive it all the way down the field to secure the victory. Charles Simmons was a standout for Benedict through the air. Despite only throwing 131 yards, the QB threw for three touchdowns. The offense has improved week over week, but if the Tigers are able to get more yardage through the air, they should be able to defend home field tonight and get their first win of the season.
