short <strong>of</strong> grabbing their fi rst win <strong>of</strong> the season in the 2 nd Annual Commemorative Classic as<br />
the Johnson C. Smith Golden Bulls defeated Livingstone 26-13 at Memorial Stadium.<br />
The Blue Bears received the opening kick<strong>of</strong>f and after picking up a couple fi rst downs<br />
failed on a fourth down conversion and turned the ball over to the Golden Bulls. Johnson<br />

back over to Livingstone.<br />
Livingstone punted on the ensuing possession, but the Blue Bears weren’t without the<br />
ball for long. On the next drive by the Golden Bulls, the Blue Bears forced a fumble that<br />

Livingstone’s ensuing possession was again positive on the yardage and the Blue Bears got down to the Johnson C. Smith four yard line. Livingstone had a fourth down and goal to<br />
go and opted against the fi eld goal attempt and the running play failed and the ball was again turned over on downs. Johnson C. Smith took full advantage and hooked up on another<br />
big pass play, this time 75 yards for a touchdown. The Blue Bear special teams blocked another extra point try and Johnson C. Smith led 19-7, the halftime score.<br />
For an unknown reason the Blue Bears got the opening kick <strong>of</strong> the second half after also receiving it in the fi rst half. The fi rst drive for the Blue Bears ended on a turnover on<br />
downs. Johnson C. Smith took over and capped <strong>of</strong>f an eight-play, 65-yard drive with a 21-yard run to go up 26-7 with the extra point. After a Livingstone punt on the next possession,<br />
Shawntez Jones picked <strong>of</strong>f his fi rst pass <strong>of</strong> the season to give the ball back to the Blue Bears.<br />
The fourth quarter started with a Livingstone punt followed less than two minutes later by a Johnson C. Smith punt. Starting quarterback Levon Stanley was injured in the next<br />
series and backup Curtis Edens entered the game. On his fi rst pass, Edens was intercepted giving the ball back to the Golden Bulls. With 8:10 to go in the game the Golden Bulls<br />
turned the ball over on downs.<br />
Livingstone took over on the 39 yard line <strong>of</strong> Johnson C. Smith and drove 61 yards on 11 plays to get into the end zone on a seven-yard run by Tevin Mishoe. The Blue Bears<br />
attempted a two-point conversion that failed and the Golden Bulls led 26-13. Livingstone attempted an onside kick that was recovered by Johnson C. Smith which allowed the Golden<br />
Bulls to run out the clock and take 26-13 victory.<br />
