(STATS) -- North Carolina A&T, North Carolina Central and South Carolina State have been involved in the last three Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference championships. That trend figures to continue this year with the season winding down.The run began in 2013 when the Bulldogs shared the title with Bethune-Cookman. All three teams were part of a five-way tie for the championship in 2014 before the Aggies and Eagles shared the crown with Bethune-Cookman last season.This year, No. 11 North Carolina A&T (7-1, 5-0) and North Carolina Central (6-2, 5-0) lead the way with South Carolina State (3-4, 3-1) sitting in third place.The Bulldogs had a chance to enter Saturdays visit to the Aggies with a 4-0 MEAC record, but they lost 28-26 at Hampton (4-4, 4-2) last weekend. South Carolina State had won 13 of the previous 14 meetings with North Carolina A&T before the Aggies came away with a 9-6 road victory last season on a late field goal.Weve got a challenge ahead of us because South Carolina States pretty good, Aggies coach Rod Broadway said. Weve got to prepare and on top of that theyve had our number here, theyve worn us out ... so weve got to get better and we need to play better against these guys.Having five-time reigning MEAC offensive player of the week Tarik Cohen in the backfield should help the Aggies. During that five-week stretch, Cohen rushed for 954 yards and 11 touchdowns while averaging 8.6 yards per carry. He ran for 200 yards against Norfolk State on Oct. 6 to break the MEAC career rushing record, which now stands at 5,199 yards.Cohen, second in the FCS with 1,168 rushing yards and tied for the lead with 14 TDs on the ground, is the 26th running back in FCS history to rush for more than 5,000 yards and the 10th FCS player to record four straight 1,000-yard seasons.However, hes been held to 169 yards and no touchdowns on 51 carries in three meetings with South Carolina State.We do recognize where hes at, Bulldogs coach Buddy Pough said. Anytime a guy has had the success that hes had in this league, you better have some kind of idea how to give a guy a little extra attention that way, but besides that its been maybe a freak kind of circumstance for us. ... Lets hope it doesnt happen this time.North Carolina Central comes off its bye and heads out on the road Saturday to face Delaware State (0-8, 0-5), which has lost 23 of its last 24 games. The Eagles have won six straight since opening the season with road losses to Duke and Western Michigan, which is 9-0 and ranked 17th in the FBS.North Carolina A&T visits North Carolina Central on Nov. 19 in the regular-season finale for both teams, a matchup that could see them each enter undefeated in the MEAC. Eagles coach Jerry Mack, though, isnt looking that far ahead.Weve been in this situation before the last couple of years, Mack said. We always usually play pretty well down the stretch after weve had some rest and as the focus continues to increase because they can kind of see that the end is near and some of their dreams and goals that theyve set at the beginning of the season start to become more realistic during this time of the season.We dont really worry about down the road. The only thing we know is Delaware State is a road game, we gotta go to an environment that is unfamiliar to us and we have to do a great job of trying to come away with a win in that environment.

Instead they turned in a sloppy effort and the Tigers made them pay. Scherzer won his 13th straight decision and Alex Avila hit a three-run homer as Detroit defeated Toronto 6-2 at Rogers Centre. The Blue Jays made three errors on the night, leading to five unearned runs. "We definitely didnt help ourselves there," said Toronto manager John Gibbons. "And like Ive said before, against the better pitchers if you fall behind like that its an uphill battle." Scherzer (13-0) allowed seven hits, two earned runs and had eight strikeouts over 6 1-3 innings. He became the first starting pitcher to open the season by winning 13 straight decisions since Roger Clemens, who went 14-0 to start the 1986 season with the Boston Red Sox. Torontos Josh Johnson (1-3) turned in another inconsistent outing and also struggled in the field, making two errors in the third inning alone. The games key miscue was an error by second baseman Emilio Bonifacio that led to four unearned runs in the second inning. That was more than enough offence for Scherzer, who was hit hard a few times but maintained his steadiness throughout. Victor Martinez chipped in with a solo homer drove in two runs for Detroit (45-38). Toronto (41-43) fell two games below the .500 mark with its second straight loss and will need a win Thursday to salvage a split of the four-game series. Johnson, who returned to the lineup June 9 after missing seven weeks with right triceps inflammation, lasted five innings and allowed seven hits, one earned run, two walks and had five strikeouts. He has pitched five innings or less in five of his 10 starts this year. "Thats the frustrating thing is Im feeling good and I just want to go out there and throw some innings for this team and Im not really doing my job," Johnson said. The veteran right-hander gave up an infield single to Prince Fielder in the second inning. Martinez then hit a tailor-made double-play ball that went through Bonifacios legs and rolled into right field. Jhonny Peralta followed with a single that scored Fielder with the games first run. Johnson recorded the next two outs before Avila turned on a 3-2 pitch for his sixth homer of the year. The Blue Jays threatened in the bottom half but couldnt push a run across. Mark DeRosa hit a two-out triple and J.P. Arencibia followed with a blast to centre field that Austin Jackson snagged with a highlight-reel catch at the top of the wall. In the third, Johnson fumbled a dribbler near the front of the mound. That allowed Torii Hunter to reach base and he scored on a Martinez single to make it 5-0. Johnson later mishandled a chopper for his second error. The Tigers loaded the bases but Jose Bautista prevented any further damage with a nice running catch on an Omar Infante drive to right-centre field. Infante had to leave the game in the fourth inning with a left leg injury after a hard slide by Colby Rasmus on a potential doublle-play ball.dddddddddddd. Gibbons declined comment on the play and the Toronto centre-fielder wasnt immediately available to discuss it after the game. "Were really mad about that slide, thats a very dirty play in my book," Scherzer said. "When you watch it on replay, his spikes are up, hes sliding late. Rajai Davis is running there, hes going to be safe at first, were most likely not going to turn two there. "Theres no reason to slide in like that. I feel like he should be suspended." Martinez padded Detroits lead in the fifth when he smacked a 1-2 pitch over the wall in right field for his seventh homer of the season. Todd Redmond, who was called up earlier in the day from triple-A Buffalo, relieved Johnson and gave up a leadoff single to Jackson. With tension already high after the Rasmus slide, Redmond then hit Hunter just below the shoulder. The veteran right-fielder had a few choice words for the Toronto hurler and the benches and bullpens emptied. No punches were thrown and Hunter eventually walked down to first base. Hunter said his outburst was nothing against Redmond, he was just emotional because his teammate had been injured a few minutes earlier. "You take away somebody like that whos very important to our ball club, Im upset," Hunter said. "You take out a guy dirty like that, Im upset. The lateness of his slide, the spikes were high. "It was all wrong." Redmond got out of the jam when Miguel Cabrera lined out into a double play and Fielder struck out. The Blue Jays got on the board in the bottom of the sixth inning. Jose Reyes led off with a single and moved to second on a Bautista single. After an Adam Lind strikeout, Rasmus drove Reyes in with a single to right field. Rajai Davis struck out and Maicer Izturis drove in Bautista with a single to left. Scherzer was pulled after giving up a one-out single to Bonifacio in the seventh inning. Bruce Rondon came on in relief and got Reyes to pop up and Bautista to hit into a forceout. Redmond, who is expected to get a start on Sunday, allowed only one hit over three shutout innings. Toronto reliever Dustin McGowan struck out the side in the ninth. Joaquin Benoit picked up the final three outs for the Tigers. Notes: X-rays on Infantes leg were negative.
