App State Handles Elon In Front of Sellout Crowd

BOONE, N.C. — A rainbow descended toward Kidd Brewer Stadium's new north end zone facility Saturday evening.

With a sellout crowd of 30,224 gathered for App State's first home game with no crowd-size restrictions in 651 days, a 44-10 victory against Elon included a rich mix of gold and black at the end of The Rock's rainbow — along with a throwback white logo.

T.D. Roof's 90-yard interception return set up a third-quarter touchdown that gave the Mountaineers (2-1) a 27-3 lead on a day they honored Hall of Fame coach Jerry Moore by unveiling a statue and dedicating a plaza bearing his name.
