Washington, DC (Sports Network) - Riley Skinner completed each of his 11 passes for 166 yards and hit Ben Wooster for the go-ahead touchdown midway through the fourth quarter, as Wake Forest avenged a loss to Navy earlier this season with a 29-19 victory over the Midshipmen in the inaugural EagleBank Bowl at RFK Stadium.
Josh Adams ran for a pair of touchdowns and Rich Belton scored on a 35-yard run in the final minute to seal it for Wake Forest (8-5), which opened the season with three wins before a 24-17 home loss to Navy on September 27 started a run of five losses in eight games.
Skinner threw four interceptions in the earlier game against the Midshipmen, but was perfect on Saturday as Wake Forest won its second straight bowl game and improved to 6-3 all-time in bowl action.
Kevin Harris ran for 136 yards and caught a pair of passes for 36 yards for the Demon Deacons. Wake Forest piled up 405 yards to just 253 for Navy.
Kaipo-Noa Kaheaku-Enhada ran for 83 yards with a touchdown, but also threw a costly interception for the Midshipmen (8-5), who have lost three straight bowl games by a combined 14 points. Shun White added 71 yards on the ground for Navy, which had posted shutouts over Northern Illinois and Army in its final two regular-season games.
