WILLIAMSBURG, Va. (Courtesy of W&M Athletics) – The No. 15/16 William & Mary football team earned a 35-28 victory against Campbell in front of a Homecoming crowd of 12,138 at Zable Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

Led by Bronson Yoder (131 rushing yards) and Malachi Imoh (122 rushing yards), the Tribe (5-2, 2-1) piled up 355 rushing yards, marking the third time in the last four games that W&M has eclipsed 300 yards on the ground.

An 11-yard touchdown pass from Chad Mascoe to Sincere Brown with 1:56 remaining cut the lead in half, but the ensuing onside kick went out of bounds and W&M picked up a pair of first downs en route to running out the clock.
