Virginia Union University's defense shut out a stubborn Livingstone College team as the Panthers collected their second straight win 14-12 in Hovey Field on Saturday.

 

VUU's Raymond Cherry recovered a Livingstone fumble early in the fourth quarter while teammate Stephen Johnson jumped on another Blue Bear fumble later on.  Then with time running out, VUU's Henry Tolliver intercepted a Livingstone pass to ensure the win.

 

VUU quarterback Lamar Little shined again on offense, hitting 9 of 19 passes for 173 yards and two touchdowns.

 

The win raised VUU's record to 2-1 overall and 1-0 in the CIAA.  Livingstone fell to 0-4 overall and 0-1 in the CIAA.

 

VUU now readies itself for a matchup against Johnson C. Smith University on September 23 in Hovey Field.  The Golden Bulls were idle this week, after having lost to Bowie State 14-13 last week.
