Wesley Kirchharr Staff Writer The Troy football team picked up its first win of the season by topping in-state foe Alabama State 34-7. The Trojans (1-1, 0-0 Sun Belt) and the Hornets tossed the lead back and forth during the first quarter of play before the Trojans took control. Troy sputtered in the first quarter, but a steady scoring streak and a stingy defense gave Head Coach Neal Brown his first win of the season. Troy was the first to draw blood after a four-yard score on the ground from running back Jordan Chunn. Alabama State’s Ronnie Scott responded by picking off Brandon Silvers and taking it 80 yards for the tying score.
