NORFOLK, Va. – The Old Dominion football team (1-11, 0-8 C-USA) wrapped up its regular season with a 38-22 loss against Charlotte (7-5, 5-3 C-USA) at S.B. Ballard Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

Led by Stone Smartt at quarterback, the Monarchs moved the ball well and racked up 356 total yards, but they struggled to finish drives, cashing in on just two of their five redzone opportunities.
