GREENSBORO, N.C. (AP) - Maurice Francois, Fred McCaskill and Courtney Keith all rushed for touchdowns as Bethune-Cookman ran past North Carolina A&T 31-13 on Saturday.

Mike Mayhew scored from 1 yard out on the game's final play for the Aggies (5-4, 3-3).

Francois was 5 for 7 with 85 yards passing and ran for 73 yards and a score on 23 carries.
