Campbell University scored 28 unanswered points on Saturday afternoon, and rolled past Maine 35-6 in CAA football action in the homecoming game at Alfond Stadium in Orono.
The Black Bears lone scoring play came on a 8-yard touchdown pass from Caden Drezek to Rashawn Marshall in the second quarter. The Fighting Camels explosive offense put up 562 yards of offense led by quarterback Kamden Sixkiller who passed for 450 yards (29 for 44) with three touchdowns and one interception to help his team improve to 7-1 (4-0 in the CAA). Jyron Waiters also had a big day in the pass game as he hauled in seven receptions for 155 yards and a score. Drezek went 21-40 for 212 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions for Maine, who drops their seventh straight contest in falling to 1-7 overall and 1-4 in conference play. Evan Wallace added six receptions for 67 yards. The Bears were held to just 76 rushing yards on 30 carries (2.5 average per attempt). Jeremiah McGill and Noah Carpenter (Leavitt) would lead the defense. McGill had 11 total tackles (8 solo), and Carpenter had 10 total stops (5 solo). Erv Wiggins Jr. had the only turnover Maine would force with an interception.
