100 yards, two touchdowns in opener Peoples had 14 carries for 100 yards and two touchdowns against East Carolina. Impact Appalachian State controlled the game on the ground, racking up 226 yards on 6.3 YPC. Peoples and Nate Noel split the backfield work and Noel actually out-rushed Peoples 126 to 100, but it was Peoples who found pay dirt twice. Noel projects to command some work moving forward, but Peoples still stands as the top back for Appalachian State.
