WSSU rolls past Virginia Union 55-15

RICHMOND, Virginia - Different season, more of the same for Winston-Salem State.

The Rams, the two-time defending CIAA champions, opened their conference season with another convincing win. This time, it was a 55-15 romp against Virginia Union in front of 2,000 at Hovey Field on Saturday afternoon.

The performance was vintage WSSU, jumping out to a big lead and coasting from there.



“We have to come out early and show people that we are the same Rams,” said Coach Connell Maynor of the Rams, whose team rolled up 509 yards and scored four touchdowns on their first five possessions. “We are going to fight for 60 minutes.”

It wasn’t much of a fight. The Panthers (0-4) were intent on crowding the line of scrimmage on defense —and quarterback Rudy Johnson of the Rams took advantage.
