Football Defeated by Randolph-Macon at Home

WINCHESTER, Va. - The Shenandoah University football team hosted Randolph-Macon College on Saturday afternoon and lost 21-7 in ODAC play.

The Yellow Jackets (6-2, 4-1 ODAC) rushed for 188 yards and held the Hornets (5-3, 3-2) to 19 total yards on the ground.

RECAP

Shenandoah drove the ball 64 yards down the field on the opening drive, with help from a pass interference call on the Yellow Jackets on a third-down play, and got inside the red zone. However, a missed field goal kept the game scoreless and gave the ball to the Yellow Jackets.

Both teams punted on the next two drives, and it was Randolph-Macon scoring first with a five-yard touchdown pass early in the second. RMC then forced a three-and-out and drove 62 yards for another touchdown with 4:03 left in the half.

The Hornets got the ball back and got a 50-yard reception from Caleb Weston to once again put them in the red zone. However, with no time left on the clock, Shenandoah was stopped on a third down to keep the Yellow Jackets up 14-0 at half.

Shenandoah forced a fumble on the opening kickoff in the second half, giving them possession at RMC's 26-yard line. SU took advantage of the great field position and scored on a four-yard touchdown catch by Jackson McFarland to make it 14-7. However, RMC scored on its next drive to extend the lead back to 14.

Two fourth-quarter interceptions by the Yellow Jacket defense helped them lock up the win, with neither team scoring in the final 15 minutes. 

Makhi Brown finished the day going 26-for-41 for 194 yards and a touchdown. Roge't Walker was his top target with seven receptions, while Weston led the team with 50 receiving yards.

Shenandoah's defense was led by 18 tackles from Nick English, a career-high for the sophomore. The linebacker added a forced fumble and 2.5 tackles for loss. Jaren Mitchell and Ace Heinrichs added double-digit tackles for the SU defense.

UP NEXT

Shenandoah heads to Washington and Lee University next Saturday for a 1 p.m. ODAC kickoff.
