A Season-Best Effort from Ty'jae Simpson Leads Northeastern over Hertford County
Northeastern picked up their 11th consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Ty'Jae Simpson.

That's the most rushing yards he has posted since back in August.
On the year, Simpson has caught 4 touchdowns while averaging 45.3 receiving yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after 11 games last season, he was only averaging 27.64 receiving yards per game.

Northeastern Gets a Boost from Jones in 57-13 Victory
Trevaris Jones's big game helped extend Northeastern's winning streak to 11 on Friday. Jones did his part (and then some), throwing for 202 yards and two touchdowns while completing 80% of his passes, and also rushing for 41 yards for the 'W'.
Hertford County had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Jones it was a similar story. When Jones last faced the Bears back in October, he threw for 289 yards and two touchdowns while completing 71.4% of his passes, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground.
