BLACKSBURG, Va., Sept. 11 (UPI) -- Quarterback Drew Dudzik rushed for a go-ahead, fourth-quarter touchdown Saturday and James Madison stunned No. 13 Virginia Tech 21-16.

Dudzik guided the Dukes (2-0) 62 yards on an eight-play drive that began with 2:48 to go in the third quarter. He capped it with his 12-yard run along the left side into the end zone, giving James Madison its first lead of the game by the final tally of 21-16.

The Hokies (0-2) had a chance to pull even late in the game, driving to the Dukes' 12-yard-line, but Darren Evans fumbled and cornerback Leavander Jones picked it up with 5:37 left in the contest.

Dudzik carried the ball 12 times for 35 yards and a pair of touchdowns and went 5-of-8 through the air for 121 yards, one score and no interceptions.

Jamal Sullivan hauled in a 77-yard scoring strike for the Hokies, who went down to defeat despite holding a 361-235 total yardage edge. They lost two fumbles and quarterback Tyrod Taylor (10-for-16, 124 yards) was intercepted once.
