Rashawn King scores a touchdown: Navy 10 Wake Forest 0
Posted by Phil Ewing on December 20th, 2008 filed in Uncategorized
Senior cornerback and one of Navy’s team leaders Rashawn King just returned a fumble by Wake Forest cornerback Alphonso Smith for a touchdown.
King’s father died suddenly the week before the Army-Navy game and returned to his family forcing him to miss the game. It’s great to see him get that 50-yard touchdown return. His teammates mauled him as he returned to the sideline as I’m sure they are happy it was King who picked up the fumble.
It’s odd to see Smith taking that handoff as he’s a cornerback, but he’s the best athlete on the Wake Forest team and it seems coach Jim Grobe wants to get him in the game as much as possible. Smith along with linebacker Aaron Curry are sure to be playing on Sundays soon, but he probably wishes he had that one back.
