Tulane 21, Army 17

The following is a summary of the Army/Tulane game from NCAA.com. We had a good little crowd on Saturday and some pictures were taken. Click on the Picture below for more pictures.

The Tulane Green Wave (2-2) got back to .500 by grinding out a dramatic win at home against Army (2-2). Dontrell Hilliard scored a 75-yard touchdown on the game’s first play to give Tulane a quick lead. Army took a late 17-14 lead, but a 3-yard score by quarterback Jonathan Banks with 23 seconds remaining propelled Tulane to victory.
