They punched their ticket to the championship game by taking down Claflin 13-0, giving them their third straight shutout victory.
Tied with Winston-Salem State with a 5-1 conference record in the regular season, Fayetteville State came into the tournament as the second-seed.

WSSU was led by Chakira Generette, scoring a pair of rushing touchdowns, while Leah Bowman sealed the win for her team with an interception.
