He didn’t have the best numbers of his career, but Marquise Williams got the homecoming victory he wanted Saturday in North Carolina’s 39-17 Belk Bowl win over Cincinnati. “It was a great homecoming,” said Williams, a longtime Shelby resident who graduated from Charlotte’s Mallard Creek High School in 2011. “It was great to get a win for our seniors and we’ve got something to build on for next year.” (Gaston Gazette)
