South Atlantic Foes Lenoir-Rhyne and Wingate Meet in Second Round of D2 Championship

9:36 AM


After extending its winning streak to 11 straight with a 43-21 win over Florida Tech in the opening round of the 2018 Division II NCAA Playoffs, the Lenoir-Rhyne Bears advance to host and take on Wingate in the Second Round.

Wingate made it to the second round after scoring a pair of fourth-quarter touchdowns last Saturday afternoon and rallying for a 41-31 win over 10th-ranked West Georgia

The Bulldogs and Bears squared off back on September 22. Lenoir-Rhyne appeared to have that game in hand, leading 31-7 halfway into the third quarter. But redshirt freshman quarterback Shaw Crocker found senior wideout J.T. Stokes for two big touchdowns to close out the third quarter with 17 unanswered points. Their comeback fell a touchdown short, and one would imagine that Wingate was hoping for a chance to avenge that loss.

  • Wingate won 24-14 in 2015 to snap Lenoir-Rhyne's 22-game SAC winning streak 
  • Wingate won 22-14 at Lenoir-Rhyne last season
