Appalachian State Wins the New Orleans Bowl!

As covered by the Charlotte Observer and Fox 8,

Appalachian State beat Middle Tennessee State in the New Orleans Bowl on the 15th. The final score was 45-13. Wide receiver Malik Williams threw two touchdown passes off of trick plays in the game among other fantastic plays by other teammates. It was an exciting game and after becoming Sun Belt Conference Champions back on the 1st of December, another amazing win has Mountaineer spirits soaring!
