On Saturday, Sept. 1, Jerry Richardson Stadium was the sight of the 49ers Football first home-opening victory since 2013.
Through many weather delays, Charlotte defeated the Fordham Rams by a score of 34-10. The 49ers took the win by way of a record performance from running back Benny LeMay, a strong overall defensive performance and a freshman connection between quarterback Chris Reynolds and wide receiver Victor Tucker.
The game started off a little slow and the 49ers only held a 13-7 lead at the half. Reynolds was sacked three times in the game, all of which came in the first half.
