Texas Southern Hosts Virginia-Lynchburg for Homecoming Celebration

HOUSTON – The Texas Southern Tigers are set to kick off their 90th Homecoming festivities on campus as they welcome Virginia-Lynchburg at Durley Stadium this Saturday.

As part of the celebratory weekend, other Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) will participate in homecoming games as well. Florida A&M faces Alcorn State, Southern takes on Prairie View A&M, and Mississippi Valley State meets Lincoln (CA).

The Tigers, looking to gain momentum, are on the verge of potentially winning their fourth consecutive game for the first time in 11 years. Currently, they hold a record of 4-3, with a 3-1 conference standing.

Texas Southern’s robust defensive strategies will face challenges from Virginia-Lynchburg, who suffered significant setbacks during their previous matchup against Morgan State, allowing them to score 44 points.
