ETSU gets TDs from all three units in 34-16 win over The Citadel
CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) --- TJ Peyton ran for 110 yards and a touchdown and East
Tennessee State rallied from an early deficit to beat The Citadel 34-16 on
Saturday.
The Buccaneers (5-2, 3-0 Southern Conference), who entered ranked 24th in the
Stats Perform poll, got touchdowns from all three units.
The Citadel (2-4, 0-3) built a 10-0 first quarter lead on Quentin Hayes'
17-yard touchdown run and Evan Kelly's 29-yard field goal. To start the second,
ETSU got a defensive score when Tyreek'e Robinson forced a fumble by Gavin
Garcia and CJ Robinson scooped the ball and ran it in from the 4. Ewan Johnson
tied it before halftime with a 25-yard field goal.
Johnson added a 26-yard field goal in the third, and just a minute later,
Taylor McClure blocked Jack Weil's punt and Josh Buckhalter returned it from
the 9 for a 20-10 lead. Peyton's 85-yard touchdown run with 3:05 left in the
third sealed it.
Xavier Hill --- one of four quarterbacks used by the Bulldogs --- threw for 81
yards and a touchdown.
The Citadel's last win against the Buccaneers occurred Sept. 10, 2022, in a
20-17 home contest.
