Charlotte rallied for a thrilling 42-35 victory over Monmouth in a seesaw battle featuring five lead changes at Jerry Richardson Stadium. Quarterback Conner Harrell powered the 49ers with three touchdown passes—two to E. Jai Mason—and added two crucial rushing scores, including the game-winner with just 1:30 remaining. The Hawks' Derek Robertson kept pace with four touchdown passes in the back-and-forth contest, but Charlotte's late-game execution proved decisive.
