EA football wrapped up its season with a tough final game against rival, The Haverford School on Saturday, Nov. 21. "It was unfortunate to only play three games, we felt our team could have developed nicely given an entire season," shared Coach Fairlie. "Our seniors were on track to become one of the winningest classes in school history before the abbreviated year." UD is part of the Colonial Athletic Conference which has only canceled football, but Rawak said UD will cancel the entire fall sports program including cross country, field hockey, soccer, volleyball, rowing, tennis and golf. Dover, Del. --- A modern-day school- record seven home games highlight the 2019 Delaware State University football schedule. The Hornets played just four games at Alumni Stadium in each of the last two years.
The previous high for DSU home games in a season was six, most recently in 2008. "I am thrilled to welcome Ryan Carty as the new head coach of our football program," Assanis said in a statement Friday. The University of Maine football team's unique spring football season couldn't have gotten off to a worse start when University of Delaware senior Dejoun Lee returned the opening kickoff 87 yards for a touchdown.

Until taking on the University of Delaware this weekend, the last time a North Dakota State football team ventured so far east was a road trip and then some.
The Bison boarded a train in Fargo on a Tuesday, arrived in Washington, D.C., on a Thursday and played George Washington University on a Friday. Henley played in four games as a true freshman this season, seeing time as Delaware's fourth cornerback behind Adewusi, Hinton and redshirt sophomore Nijuel Hill. His name was never called for more than a few drives at a time, a testament to how the defensive backfield rebounded after poor showings against Richmond, Elon and Towson.
With more than a dozen starters leaving the team, including eight on defense and the offense's three leading receivers, shaping the 2019 roster into a playoff contender will be Rocco and his staff's toughest test yet. He already set the goal of becoming Delaware's first back-to-back playoff team since the 2003 and 2004 seasons. With an extra Saturday between Labor Day and Thanksgiving, the NCAA allows members of its Division I Football Championship Subdivision to schedule an additional contest.
Coe kicked a 45-yard field goal six plays after Gelb's 23-yard punt and Lee finished off a nine-play 48-yard march following Gelb's 19-yard punt to make it 27-0 as he cashed in with a 12-yard run. The first-time trip to a team from the Colonial Athletic Association will be the sixth time the Bison have played on the East Coast, with the last time at Georgia Southern in 2006. Before that it was at Shippensburg (Pa.) for a Division II semifinal playoff game, at George Washington in 1937 and the two games in 1932. DSU will close out the 2019 season with three home games, beginning with a visit by MEAC rival Bethune-Cookman to highlight Hall of Fame / Champions Weekend on Nov. 9.
The Hornets and Wildcats will also meet for the first time since 2016. The Wildcats posted a victory the last time the teams met three seasons ago in Daytona Beach, Fla., to pull ahead in the series Delaware State last defeated BCU in 2008. The Hornets will be seeking their second straight win against NC Central after upsetting the Eagles for their first win of the season and first for new head coach Rod Milstead at home in 2018. Freshman Michael Chris-Ike rushed for a game-high 121 yards, including a 42-yard touchdown, to highlight the win and snap a five-game NCCU win streak in the series. Alvernia mishandled the kickoff to start the second half and started its first drive at the 6-yard line. Former Smyrna stars, QB Nolan Henderson and RB Will Knight paired up in the University of Delaware backfield in the fourth quarter.
Henderson went 4/4 with 17 yards in the air, and 20 yards on the ground. Knight, who is Delaware's all-time high school rushing leader, rushed for a team-high 68 yards, including a 61 yard rush.

The Blue Hens will host seven games at Delaware Stadium in 2019, including one against five-time national champion North Dakota State.
It's the first time since 2014 that Delaware has had seven home games on its regular season schedule. UMaine finished with just 51 yards rushing on 24 carries and 61 passing yards. The Black Bears averaged just 2.7 yards per play on first down and that contributed to them needing to pick up at least six yards on third down seven times. There was a time when playing regional FBS schools like Minnesota, Colorado State and Iowa State was doable, but NDSU's 9-3 record vs. the FBS erased those possibilities. Then, like a minor league baseball team, the Bison remained on the East Coast and headed to West Point, N.Y., to play Army the following week. The Cadets were good hosts, putting the visitors up in barracks until the game that Saturday.
In two high school seasons, de Maille caught 104 passes for 1,674 yards and 27 touchdowns. He turned down 22 scholarship offers out of high school to now have the opportunity to become the next in the line of successful Delaware tight ends, following the likes of Scarff, Nick Boyle and Ben Patrick. In limited action across 11 games, de Maille caught three passes for 24 yards, including a touchdown grab in traffic against Lafayette in week two. His low number of targets was more a product of the names stacked ahead of him on the depth chart than his ability. Henley intercepted 16 passes in his final two seasons at North Penn, tallied 1,933 receiving yards and scored 24 total touchdowns.
Delaware State will wrap up the season at home against the St. Francis (Pa.) Red Flash for Veterans & Military Appreciation Day on Nov. 23. The teams will meet for the second straight year and third time overall. The other meeting between the teams was in 2006, won by the Hornets at Alumni Stadium.

This will be the ninth meeting between the state's two NCAA Division I football programs. All of the previous contests were played at Delaware Stadium in Newark. The Hens posted a 22-3 victory the last time the teams met in 2017. Two years ago saw the Rams celebrate something of a rebirth against Delaware — a night game played on field turf, a pair of milestones reached at once in Kingston.
The Blue Hens escaped in triple-overtime, 44-36, but an overflow crowd of 8,511 fans created a superb atmosphere. URI sold out its overtime win against Stony Brook last week and could be headed for another full house on Saturday. Lee rushed for 221 yards on just 22 carries in the spring, including a 74-yard burst for a score. The Blue Hens piled up 361 rushing yards in the game, with the Rams unable to plug enough gaps upfront in key spots. URI is allowing roughly a third of that total per game this season — 137 yards — and surrenders only 3.6 yards per carry.
"I'm so humbled and excited to be involved in ushering in a new phase of one of the elite traditions in all of college football," Carty said in a statement.

The Texas team is vying for consecutive titles, playing in the FCS quarterfinals this weekend having won 21 straight games dating back to last season. Football is a major revenue generator for the flagship university and the surrounding Newark community, with capacity for more than 18,000 to attend games. UD has also invested mightily into the football program in the last few years, pouring $60 million into renovations of Delaware Stadium and the building of the new Whitney Athletic Center to attract top recruits. UMaine sophomore quarterback Joe Fagnano completed 10 of 23 passes for just 61 yards.
Lee carried 14 times for 90 yards and Spruill finished with 120 on 49 attempts. Henderson completed 16 of 24 passes for 146 yards and a TD and Coleman caught five passes for 48 yards. We have to play much better against a good Albany team next weekend," Charlton said. Delaware, which returned seven offensive starters and eight on defense from its 2019 team, held UMaine to six first downs and a meager 112 total yards. Since 2012, at least ten EA football players have gone on to participate on teams at the college level, including UVA, Villanova, Temple, the University of Delaware, and the University of Pennsylvania. The Blue Hens will get their chance for a do-over Saturday when the Bison travel to Newark, Delaware, for a noon kickoff at Delaware Stadium.
The victory last year was as dominating as the Bison had against a highly regarded opponent all season. One story detailed several NDSU players voting by absentee ballot for the presidential election, which easily went to Franklin D. Roosevelt. Another story told of players being "mentally strained" after the long train ride to Washington, D.C. The two schools have met 17 times, with the last meeting coming in 2013.

This will be the 25th meeting between the teams and 20th as members of the MEAC.
Norfolk State has won the last two contests, including a victory last season, although the Hornets lead the series 16-8. Six different receivers caught a pass from Sample for the Wolves and Carey rushed for 41 yards to lead the home team. Del Val started the next possession in Alvernia territory after a short kick and an offsides penalty against the Golden Wolves.
The first play went for 30 yards from Fontana to Aaron Nelson and the Aggies punched it in on a 5-yard run from Fontana. The Blue Hens (3-1, 2-0 CAA) enter with questions at quarterback following a home grinder against Albany. Nolan Henderson and Zach Gwynn both took snaps against the Great Danes, combining to go 13-for-22. Delaware averaged just 4.7 yards per play and committed the game's only turnover.

Whatever the outcome against the Blue Hens, the Bison are scheduled to fly back after the game via a charter from Delta Airlines. That would be unlike the 1932 game at George Washington, where a banquet greeted the Bison the day after the game. De Maille is built more like Tyler than Scarff, but he is probably a little quicker than both of them. De Maille, who played mostly wide receiver in high school, could be lined up all over the field week-to-week to exploit the best matchup.
Charles Scarff demonstrated how valuable a receiving threat can be at tight end in Delaware's scheme. The redshirt senior dominated the red zone, scoring seven touchdowns in Delaware's first eight games, before the entire offense settled into a late season swoon. Freshman linebacker Kedrick Whitehead rushes the passer in the first round of the FCS playoffs. Whitehead replaced Ray Jones midway through the game when Jones was ejected for targeting.
