CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) — Paxton DeLaurent was 32 of 55 for 335 yards and a touchdown to help Southeast Missouri State extend its winning streak to six games following a 26-13 victory over Charleston Southern on Saturday.
DC Pippin scored a career-high 14 points on four field goals and two extra points. His third field goal put SEMO ahead for good at 9-7 with 12:16 left in the second quarter.
SEMO closed the first half with a 19-play drive that ended in Tristan Smith’s first career rushing touchdown. The Redhawks’ first drive of the second half ended in a 20-yard touchdown pass from DeLaurent to Kyron Downing.
