GAME NOTES FROM TOWSON

WILLIAMSBURG - Tribe Game Notes From Towson:

• With Saturday's victory over Towson, W&M improved to 5-0 all-time in the series, including a 4-0 mark in games as conference opponents.

• At 3-2, W&M has not matched its entire win total from last season.

• The win snapped the Tribe's three-game conference losing streak, which dated back to last season ? It also snapped the College's seven-game home conference losing streak ? The last home win by the Tribe came over Towson in 2005.

• The win improved Head Coach Jimmye Laycock's career league record to an even 70 wins against 46 losses ? It also stands as his 100th win of Laycock's career at Zable Stadium (100-40-1).

• With his 38-yard touchdown catch and run, senior wide receiver Joe Nicholas moved into a tie for fourth-place on the College's all-time career touchdown receptions list, tying him with current NFL head coach Mike Tomlin (20).

• Junior wide out Elliott Mack established a career long with his 61-yard touchdown reception.

• With three catches for 30 yards, sophomore wide receiver R.J. Archer extended his streak of games with at least one catch to 16, recording a reception in every career game.

• The Tribe defense has now allowed a total of just nine second-half points over the last two games.

• With two interceptions, junior corner Derek Cox became the first Tribe defender to record two interceptions in the same game since Jon Shaw at Rhode Island in 2005.

• Sophomore defensive tackle Sean Lissemore picked up his first career interception ? The last time the Tribe recorded three interceptions in a contest also came in 2005 at Villanova, next week's opponent.

• Sophomore free safety Robert Livingston broke up four passes and Cox broke up an additional three pass attempts.

• Senior linebacker T.J. O'Neill returned to action after missing the last three games with an illness ? O'Neill recorded two total tackles.

• Sophomore David Caldwell led the team with 14 total tackles, one shy of his career best ? Caldwell did record a career-high with 10 unassisted tackles.

• Redshirt freshman punter David Miller downed three punts inside the Tigers' 20-yard line, including a pair inside the 10-yard line.
