Trojans complete first spring under coach Gerad Parker
Troy defensive tackle Julian Peterson celebrates catching a punt to end the Trojans' T-Day game on Saturday at Veterans Memorial Stadium. On a high-scoring Saturday at Veterans Memorial Stadium, Troy ’s defense outlasted the offense, 148-141, to win the inaugural T-Day under head coach Gerad Parker.
“Rosters are different now, and the game of college football is different,” head coach Gerad Parker said. “We took on some things with our roster during the spring with injuries and other things, nothing permanent, but we had to be smarter . We wanted to be creative and also competitive, and I thought our guys embraced it, took a mature approach to it, and had a fun day.”
Beason caught his second touchdown of this game, a 25-yard strike from Tucker Kilcrease in the Race to 18, while Nick Troemel and Scott Taylor Renfroe booted a pair of field goals. Luke Hodge came up with a big fourth-down stop for the defense, but a 25-yard touchdown pass from Kilcrease to Jordan Lovett won that part of the day for the offense.
After the kickers and punters put on a show, it was time for the skills competition, which included former Troy quarterbacks Gunnar Watson and Corey Robinson, plus running back Jordan Chunn and receiver Chandler Worthy.
