Fairmont State will now return home for its home opener against Urbana University next Saturday at Duvall-Rosier Field. Kickoﬀ is set for 1 p.m.

FIghtingfalcons.com Twitter - @fsfalcons Week 2 - Falcons Roll Past Blue Knights In Home Opener, 45-7 FightingFalcons.com FAIRMONT, W.Va. -- Fairmont State jumped out to a 31-7 halftime lead and never looked back in a 45-7 blowout victory over Urbana on Saturday afternoon during the 2018 home opener at Duvall-Rosier Field.

With the victory, Fairmont State improves to 2-0 overall and 1-0 in Mountain East Conference play. Urbana falls to 1-1 both overall and in the league.

Fairmont State found the endzone on its ﬁrst oﬀensive possession, driving 52 yards in seven plays on a drive that was capped by a nine-yard touchdown pass from Takwan Crews-Naylor to Shawn Harris.

After forcing Urbana to a three-and-out on the next oﬀensive possession, Lyrics Klugh grabbed the Blue Knight punt at the Fairmont State 31-yard line and took it to the endzone, pushing Fairmont’s ﬁrst-quarter lead to 14-0 not even halfway through the period.

Klugh’s punt return touchdown was the ﬁrst for Fairmont State since Ryan Newman’s 38-yard punt return TD on September 29, 2012 at Charleston. The last time Fairmont returned a punt for a TD at Duvall-Rosier Field was Sep- tember 1, 2011 against Clarion (Matt Wilmer).

Colin Harvath push the lead to 17-0 for the Falcons following a 36-yard field Quickie Statistics (Final) goal at the 14:08 mark of the second quarter. The scoring drive was set up Urbana vs Fairmont State (Sep 08, 2018 at Fairmont, W.Va.) by Michael Porter’s blocked field goal late in the first quarter that was recovered and returned 24 yards by Stephen Turner to the Urbana 47-yard line.
