KINGSTON, R.I. (AP) - Hakeem Moore caught a 78-yard touchdown
pass from Peter Athens on the second play of the game to spark
Towson to a 36-28 win over Rhode Island on Saturday.
Tremayne Dameron added touchdown runs of 5 and 3 yards as the
Tigers (2-3, 1-1 Colonial Athletic Association) scored on each of
their first three possessions to take a 20-0 lead with 7:21 left in
the first quarter.
Athens, who was 11 of 21 for 188 yards, also rushed for 74
yards. Moore finished with 91 yards on four catches for Towson.
Rhode Island (1-4, 0-2) used two big plays to cut the deficit to
20-14 at the half. Ayo Isijola scored on a 48-yard run with 6:03
left in the second quarter, and Shawn Leonard caught a 35-yard pass
from D.J. Stefovich with 3:06 remaining before halftime.
Isijola finished with 100 yards rushing and Stefovich was 11 of
20 for 163 yards and three touchdowns.
