NORFOLK, Va. (AP) - Tarik Cohen ran for 152 yards and a touchdown, and threw for another to lead North Carolina A&T to a 27-3 victory over Norfolk State on Saturday.

Cohen has accounted for six touchdowns during the Aggies (4-1, 2-0 Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference) three-game win streak.

After Cameron Marouf kicked a 28-yard field goal to pull Norfolk State (2-4, 2-1) to 10-3 early in the third quarter, Cohen ran for a 3-yard touchdown on the ensuing series. The Spartans then went three-and-out before Cohen threw a 6-yard touchdown pass to Denzel Keyes on fourth down, capping a 7-play, 55-yard drive to stretch the Aggie lead to 24-3.

Cody Jones kicked field goals of 30 and 38 yards. Lamar Raynard threw a 26-yard touchdown pass to Malik Wilson in the first quarter for the Aggies.
