Towson Capitalizes on Turnovers to Defeat Hampton 27-10

Towson, Md. – Towson capitalized on Hampton’s mistakes to secure a decisive 27-10 win on Saturday, with quarterback Sean Brown leading the offense through timely plays.

The Tigers took an early lead with a 12-yard touchdown run by Brown, set up by his 33-yard pass to Jaceon Doss, putting Towson up 7-0 with 5:39 left in the first quarter.

Two plays later, Brown connected with Carter Runyon for an 8-yard touchdown, pushing the lead to 14-0.

Towson added a 24-yard field goal by Keegan Vaughan late in the first half, extending their lead to 17-0. Although Hampton briefly gained momentum when Tre Everett III intercepted a pass from Brown, Towson’s defense responded by intercepting Chris Zellous and returning it 62 yards for another touchdown, widening the gap to 24-0 just before halftime.

Hampton managed a touchdown late in the game with Zellous scoring on a 3-yard run. Despite outgaining Towson in total yards (286-198), Hampton’s three turnovers proved costly, outweighing Towson’s two.

This was the second meeting between the two teams since Hampton joined the Colonial Athletic Association. Towson previously defeated Hampton 27-7 in their 2022 matchup.
