Spivey completed touchdown passes of 15, 10, and 41 yards in the second, third, and fourth quarters, respectively, and added a one-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter as PVAMU moved to 3-0 for the first time since 1964. **DEFENSIVE – LB Lee Robinson, Alcorn State; 6-3, 245; SR, Gloster, MS** Robinson made nine tackles (seven solo), two stops for loss, and two quarterback hurries. In addition, Robinson made an interception, had one pass breakup, and a sack in the Braves’ 13-3 home win over the University of Arkansas-Pine Bluff. Robinson made his interception early in the second quarter to end an UAPB drive. In the fourth quarter, Robinson recorded one of five Braves’ sacks in the game. **SPECIALIST – WR Kiare Thompson, Grambling State; 6-0, 185; SO, Sacramento, CA** Thompson averaged 21 yards on four punt returns, with his longest at 45 yards. Thompson also had one kickoff return for 19 yards in the Tigers’ 14-5 win over Jackson State. His 12-yard return in the second quarter led to the only offensive touchdown of the game.
