ORANGEBURG, S.C. – Quarterback Otto Kuhns accounted for all six Norfolk State touchdowns on Saturday, leading the Spartans (2-9, 2-3 MEAC) to a thrilling 42-38 victory at South Carolina State (3-8, 1-4) in the final game of the season. Kuhns kept it himself on an option read late in the fourth quarter, rushing 15 yards for what would be the game-winning touchdown.
 
Kuhns, who threw for 242 yards and five touchdowns while rushing for 35 yards and one score, cemented himself in the Norfolk State history books with his performance.

Norfolk State’s 42 points were the most it has recorded the entire season, but it was the defense that made the most important play of the game.
