NSU gets first TD, not much else in loss at W&M

WILLIAMSBURG, Virginia -- Norfolk State coach Pete Adrian rattled off the litany of things that went wrong Saturday.

But he wasn’t about to ignore what went right.

Steve Cluley passed for 166 yards and a touchdown and No. 19 William & Mary scored in a variety of ways in a 29-14 non-conference win over Adrian’s steadily improving Spartans at Zable Stadium.



The Tribe forced two turnovers and scored touchdowns on offense, defense and special teams in handing NSU (0-3) its ninth loss in 10 games, dating to last season.

Adrian counted the miscues aloud before changing course.

“We certainly played extremely well, and I think we’re getting better,” he said. “I don’t think there’s any question about that.”

Mikal Abdul-Saboor rushed for 66 yards for William & Mary (2-1), which won despite being outgained 322 yards to 234.
