BOONE, N.C. — Another Ring Game at The Rock. And a repeat champion.
No. 21 App State claimed its fourth consecutive league title and celebrated a Sun Belt Championship Game victory on its home field for the second straight year thanks to a 45-38 win against Louisiana on Saturday afternoon.
Three early touchdowns from belt-winning MVP Darrynton Evans gave the Mountaineers a 21-0 lead late in the first quarter, and senior safety Josh Thomas' first career interception return for a touchdown accounted for one of three turnovers forced by App State's defense.
