#24 H-SC Stays Perfect, Blanks Emory and Henry 17-0
(October 11, 2008) HAMPDEN-SYDNEY, VA--The Hampden-Sydney football team had been reminded all week about two of the lower points in its recent history, both of which served as keys to their Old Dominion Athletic Conference date with Emory and Henry. First, could the Tiger defense, much improved overall in 2008, respond after its 28-point hiccup in the fourth quarter of last week's narrow escape at Bridgewater? Second, could Hampden-Sydney avoid the turnover bug, which bit seven times in its stunning loss last season in Emory? Both questions were answered with a resounding "yes" as No. 24 Hampden-Sydney remained unbeaten on the year with an impressive 17-0 blanking of the visiting Wasps on Saturday afternoon on Homecoming weekend. Over 6,000 fans witnessed the first Hampden-Sydney shutout performance since 2002, when the Tigers snuck past Randolph-Macon 7-0 in the famed Mud Bowl. more...

Wildcats Pounce in Overtime, Beat Tigers
(October 11, 2008) HAMPDEN-SYDNEY, VA--Hampden-Sydney got off to a strong start against Randolph College but struggled early to find the back of the net. The Tigers controlled much of the play early as the ball spent a good amount of time with the Tiger offensive. Sophomore Matt Hampton (Virginia Beach, VA/Kellam) had another strong showing and was a great help in keeping the ball in offensive. It did not take long for Hampden-Sydney to fire off shots as junior Will Robertson (Charlotte, NC/Charlotte Catholic) ripped a shot in the eighth minute that hit the inside of the post and bounced out. more...

Tigers Hang Tough, Beat Royals 2-1
(October 8, 2008) HAMPDEN-SYDNEY, VA--Hampden-Sydney came into halftime for the second straight game in a scoreless tie, but the Tigers returned to scoring mode in the second half of play to propel themselves to a 2-1 win over Eastern Mennonite University. Though the Tigers struggled to find the net in the first half of play, they continually put pressure on keeper Jackson Maust and the rest of the Royals defense blasting seven shots. Freshman Bryan Wharton (Glen Allen, VA/Deep Run) and junior Will Robertson (Charlotte, NC/Charlotte Catholic) both hoisted great looks at the goal, but Maust, who had an outstanding first half, was there to stop every attempt. more...
