MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) — Marcus Harris II had three touchdown runs to lead Alabama State to a 42-24 victory over Texas Southern on Saturday night.
Harris’ 13-yard touchdown run gave Alabama State (7-2, 5-1 Southwestern Conference) a 21-17 lead midway through the second quarter. He then scored on 3-yard runs to cap back-to-back drives to give the Hornets 35-24 lead with 10:46 remaining.
Ta’Shaun Sims capped the scoring late in the fourth with a 75-yard touchdown return from a blocked field-goal attempt.
Te’Sean Smoot threw an 87-yard touchdown pass to Jalen Jones on the Hornets’ first play from scrimmage. Nehemiah Hixon had a 99-yard kickoff return for a touchdown in the second quarter.
