Simpson's Four Touchdowns Carry Tigers Past Bishops
(September 7, 2008) ROCKY MOUNT, NC--If the word about Hampden-Sydney senior tailback Josh Simpson wasn’t out already, Sunday’s season opener certainly put future Tiger opponents on high No. 42 alert. Simpson scored four touchdowns, three on the ground and one through the air, and accounted for 338 of Hampden-Sydney’s 435 yards of total offense to lead the defending Old Dominion Athletic Conference champions to a 33-23 road triumph over host North Carolina Wesleyan in the inaugural match up between the two teams. Simpson’s last touchdown, a 17-yard gallop around left end with 14:39 to play in the fourth quarter, gave Hampden-Sydney (1-0) the final ten-point margin and some much needed breathing room in a choppy contest marred by untimely sloppy play and plenty of turnovers. more...
