App State football beat Georgia Southern on the road on Saturday, 34-26. The Mountaineers snap Georgia Southern’s streak of 10 straight home victories, including six this season.

“We had two years of losing, which is way too long,” head coach Shawn Clark said. “It was a great win for our program, for our fans and for all our football players out there.”

Though the teams traded possession for the majority of the opening quarter, the Eagles capitalized on a pick-six and a 14-yard run by quarterback Justin Tomlin to take a commanding 14-0 lead with over 9 minutes left in the second quarter.
