N.C. Central wins thriller in Aggie-Eagle Classic

RALEIGH — Thanks to a missed field goal attempt by North Carolina A&T freshman Joseph Arroyo with 8 seconds remaining, Adrian Warren's Labor Day passing performance didn't go for naught.

Warren passed for 269 yards and two touchdowns Monday to lift North Carolina Central past N.C. A&T 23-22 before a Carter-Finley Stadium crowd of 35,000 in the Aggie-Eagle Classic.

Torey Ross caught seven passes for 104 yards and a touchdown and Greg Pruitt added 131 yards on the ground and as the Eagles amassed 400 yards in total offense.

Brandon Sweeney gained 151 yards on 32 carries and three touchdown's toward the Aggies' 278 yards in total offense.

Rickie Lewis had six tackles and one assist for the Aggies while Theron Thomas posted five tackles and six assists.

N.C. A&T led 10-9 after a 32-yard field goal by Arroyo 43 seconds before halftime, but N.C. Central took control early in the fourth quarter when Warren connected with Julius McClellan on a 45-yard strike to put his team ahead 17-10 after the extra point.

The Aggies scored twice more in the fourth to take a 22-17 lead. The Eagles put the game away with 2:47 on the clock when Ross caught a 46-yard touchdown pass from Warren to make it a final 23-22.
