App State losses 52-45 to Louisiana-Monroe, First Sun Belt Loss of Season for Mountaineers

Appalachian State suffered its second straight loss and its first in Sun Belt Conference action this season, falling 52-45 to the University of Louisiana-Monroe (UL-M) in a wild finish at Malone Stadium in Monroe, LA last Saturday.

It marked the first time the Mountaineers have lost to Louisiana-Monroe since joining the Sun Belt in 2014. They also were upset in double-overtime at UMass (30-27) last week.

Appalachian State senior quarterback Taylor Lamb threw his third touchdown pass to senior wide receiver Ike Lewis, a 20-yard connection with 53 seconds left in regulation, followed by kicker Chandler Staton’s extra point to tie the game at 45.
