Appalachian State rallied to beat Coastal Carolina 35-32 on Friday night, Oct. 16, at Brooks Stadium in Conway, South Carolina. The Chanticleers led 24-14 at halftime before the Mountaineers surged back behind running back Jaquari Lewis, who carried 13 times for 85 yards and four touchdowns on runs of 12, 1, 12 and 3 yards. Backup quarterback Henry Hasselbeck played the entire second half, completing nine of 12 passes for 112 yards and a touchdown while rushing 21 times for a game-high 125 yards.

Coastal Carolina quarterback Deuce Bailey threw for 298 yards and three touchdowns, and Robby Washington caught five passes for 118 yards, including a 71-yard score. A 2-yard touchdown run by Jaden Allen-Hendrix plus a two-point conversion cut the margin to 35-32 with 3:11 left, but App State picked up three first downs on its final possession to run out the clock, sealed by Lewis converting third-and-1.
