That play set him coasting on his way to 188 yards on 15 carries (a 12.5 average), including another long touch-down romp--a 66-yard scamper in the third quarter--and three touchdowns.

On fourth down, Winthrop's last scoring opportunity, a Slack-to-tightend Cormac McLoud touch-down connection tied it at six. Slack's fall into the endzone secured the Winthrop victory...
