Jackets pick up first win over WCU

Five days after a tough loss to No. 4 Clemson, Tech football defeated Western Carolina (WCU) 35-17 on the night of Saturday, Sept. 10, breaking its seven-game losing streak since last October. Despite the rainy start to the game and a tough matchup early in the week, the Jackets kept up with the Catamounts score by score before pulling ahead in the second quarter and maintaining their lead through the end.

The first quarter began strong for the Catamounts, with junior quarterback Carlos Davis throwing a 49-yard pass over the middle to Terrence Horne for an early touchdown.
