Campbell
ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) --- Kai Coln threw two touchdown passes, Albany's defense
scored twice, and the Great Danes defeated Campbell 45-35 on Saturday.
The Great Danes took an early lead on Dillon Dunathan's 77-yard fumble return
for a touchdown. They led 38-21 midway in the third quarter and their defense
dominated the final minutes.
After Dunathan's touchdown got the scoring started for the Great Danes, a
second fumble recovery led to a 14-yard touchdown run by Coln and Albany led
14-7. Later in the first quarter, Rahshan La Mons bolted 63 yards for a
touchdown, giving Albany a 21-7 lead after one.
Campbell rallied with a couple of touchdowns in the second quarter and it was
31-21 in favor of Albany at halftime.
Albany made it 38-21 in the third quarter when Jamari Young intercepted a
Kamden Sixkiller pass and returned it 25 yards for a touchdown.
Sixkiller connected with Chinua Ezeigbo for a 27-yard touchdown pass in the
third quarter and JJ Cowan's 41-yard touchdown run made it 38-35 early in the
fourth.
From there, the Albany defense regrouped, holding Campbell to a punt and two
turnovers on downs.
Coln's 16-yard touchdown pass to BJ Norman wrapped up the scoring.
Coln threw for 214 yards and Norman had 99 yards on eight receptions for the
Great Danes (6-3, 4-1 Coastal Athletic Association). La Mons had 119 yards
rushing and defensive lineman Shawan Lewis had 3 1/2 sacks, raising his season
total to 9 1/2.
Sixkiller threw for 271 yards, Ezeigbo added 110 receiving yards and Cowan ran
for 97 yards, including three touchdowns.
The Fighting Camels (7-2, 4-1) are ranked No. 12 in the Stats Perform FCS Top
25. Their 7-1 start marked their first 7-win season since the program was
restarted 19 years ago.
