| @Towson_FB Rewind: Towson-New Hampshire Notes

DURHAM, N.H. - Here are the post-game notes after the Tigers' overwhelming 64-35 victory at New Hampshire on Saturday.

CAA CHAMPIONS AGAIN: For the second year in a row, the Tiger football team won the Colonial Athletic Association championship ... Last season, the Tigers won the title outright with a 7-1 CAA record ... This year, they have to share the title with Richmond, New Hampshire and Villanova ... Old Dominion was not eligible for the CAA championship.

LOVE THOSE WILDCATS: As sophomore Terrance West was piling up the yardage against New Hampshire, a veteran observer in the press box remarked "West would win the Heisman Trophy if he played UNH every week" ... For the second year in a row, West topped the 200-yard rushing mark against the Wildcats ... On Saturday, he ran for 236 yards on 19 carries and scored two touchdowns ... Last year, West ran for 261 yards on 23 carries and scored four TD's against UNH ... In two games against UNH, West has rushed for 497 yards on 42 carries, an 11.8 average ... He has also scored six TD's.

TWO-YEAR TURNAROUND: After posting a 6-2 CAA record in 2012, the Tigers have an impressive 13-3 two-year record in the CAA ... Towson's 13-3 mark is even more impressive considering that the Tigers were 3-29 in the three previous CAA campaigns (2008, 2009, 2010).

WHEN I'M 64: The Tigers' 64-point outburst sent everyone looking through the Towson record books on Saturday ... Towson's 64 points is the third-highest total in school history ... That mark is topped only by the Tigers' 70 points in a 70-0 win over Lock Haven in 2005 and the 69 points scored in a 69-14 win over Albany State in 1970.

HIGH SCORING CONTEST:  The Towson-New Hampshire game on Saturday featured a total of 99 points, making it the highest-scoring game for two teams in school history ... With 99 points, it edged the 98 points scored in the Towson-Brown game in 2002 and the Towson-UNH game last year.

TRIBUTE TO NO. 20: With Tiger senior co-captain Jordan Dangerfield sitting out the Tigers' game at New Hampshire due to a suspension for an excessive penalty, senior Dominique Booker paid tribute to his teammate by wearing No. 20 instead of his No. 15 ... Booker responded with a big game, rushing for 89 yards on 13 carries with two touchdowns ... It would have been his career high if not for the 181 yards against Rhode Island two weeks ago.

JOIN THE CLUB: When quarterback Grant Enders scored on a 19-yard run with 2:54 remaining, he became the first quarterback in school history to rush for 1,000 yards in his career ... Enders now has 1,002 yards in his two-year career.

FIRST START: With Jordan Dangerfield out of the lineup, Walter Dunston started for the first time in his career and he made the most of it ... He had five tackles and intercepted a pass with 2:40 remaining in the game.

ROAD WARRIORS: When the Tigers pulled off their 64-35 win at New Hampshire, it was their seventh CAA road win in eight games over the last two seasons ... Towson went 4-0 in CAA road games in 2011 and 3-1 this year ... Towson is 6-2 in CAA home games during that stretch.
