NEWPORT NEWS, Va. -- This Saturday the Christopher Newport football team (2-4, 2-1) play host to USA South foe Greensboro College (1-5, 0-3) at 1 pm. The Captains are coming off a huge win on the road at N.C. Wesleyan and will look to keep the momentum rolling by returning home for the next two weeks.

Last week, in the 100th game in program history, the CNU football team earned a huge road victory at N.C. Wesleyan, 23-15. The win puts the Captains in a five-team logjam atop the USA South standings after the defense and special teams had a big day for CNU and rookie QB Lyndon Garner was poised and confident as he managed the Captains offense in his first career game.
