NORFOLK, Va. (AP) — Colton Joseph threw three touchdown passes and Old Dominion held on to beat Appalachian State 24-21 on Saturday.
The Monarchs (5-3, 2-2 Sun Belt Conference) led 10-7 at halftime then added two third-quarter touchdowns on Joseph's 16-yarder to Na'eem Abdul-Rahim Gladding and a 24-yard score to Ja'Cory Thomas.
App State backup AJ Swann entered in the fourth quarter and threw a 36-yard score to Kanen Hamlett and a 34-yarder to Davion Dozier with 1:35 left to get the Mountaineers (4-4, 1-3) within three. But the Monarchs recovered the onside kick and ran out the clock.
Joseph was 21-of-33 passing for 305 yards with the three scores plus an interception. He led all rushers with 62 yards. Joseph's other TD throw was a short pass to Ke’Travion Hargrove that the latter turned into a 70-yard score to open the scoring. Abdul-Rahim had 105 yards on eight catches.
App State starter JJ Kohl was 19-of-37 passing for 138 yards with a score and two interceptions. Swann was 12 of 16 for 140 yards and two TDs. Jaden Barnes had a TD catch.
