DAYTONA BEACH - McKinson Souverain rushed for two touchdowns and passed for another to lead Bethune-Cookman to a 24-14 win over North Carolina A&T on Saturday. The win tied Coach Alvin B. Wyatt with Rudolph Matthews for the most career victories in B-CU history with 83.

Fenroy scored from 3 and 4 yards out in the second, and Lalaf Gerren Blount returned a fumble for a score to help the Ragin' Cajuns (5-3, 4-0) build a 35-14 lead at halftime.
