Some inclement weather wasn't going to sour the day for Virginia State.

The Trojans faced the Benedict College Tigers in the 2024 edition of the Black College Football Hall of Fame Classic at the Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium in Canton, Ohio. A lengthy delay derailed the game in the third quarter but the Trojans were able to ride strong defense to a 23-7 victory.

The Trojans' defense did not allow a touchdown as the Tigers got on the board through a special teams miscue in the first quarter.
