BUIES CREEK, N.C. (AP) Hajj-Malik Williams threw two touchdown passes, Lamagea McDowell ran for two scores, and Campbell defeated Main 34-28 on Saturday.
The Fighting Camels (4-3, 3-2 Coastal Athletic Association) celebrated homecoming by building a 34-14 lead before holding off a fourth-quarter rally by the Black Bears (2-6, 1-4).
After Maine took an early 7-0 lead, Campbell responded with a touchdown run by McDowell, a touchdown pass from Williams to Jasiah Provillon, another TD run by McDowell and a touchdown run by Chris McKay Jr. for a 28-7 halftime lead. The longest of those four scores was a 7-yard run by McDowell.
Maine was the first to score in the second half, on a 26-yard connection from Derek Robertson to Jamie Lamson. Campbell then went up 34-14 when Williams threw 33 yards to Jalen Kelsey late in the third quarter.
Robertson added fourth-quarter touchdown passes of 33 and 18 yards to Rohan Jones but threw an interception on Maine's final possession.
