App State Mountaineers Roar Past Coastal Carolina, 56-37 After Weather Day

Appalachian State recorded a win in its Sun Belt Conference opener Saturday at Kidd Brewer Stadium in Boone to remain unbeaten, ripping Coastal Carolina 56-37.

Neither Coastal Carolina’s defense, nor a horrid weather delay because of lightning, could slow down Appalachian State’s offense.

“It was a unique game today with the delays and having to deal with the lightning,” Appalachian State head coach Eliah Drinkwitz said. “I thought our guys handled the adversity well. We also had the factor of where we spent a lot of energy last week against UNC, so to be able to come back and sustain that energy for as long as we did today made me real proud of our guys.
