Williams sparks B-CU to 21-7 win over Delaware State

DOVER, Delaware  -- After a sluggish first half, Bethune-Cookman needed a spark. So, Quentin Williams provided it.
 
The quarterback came off the bench to start the second half and led 21st-ranked B-CU to a 21-7 victory over Delaware State in its Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference opener Saturday in Dover, Del.
 
“This definitely was a big win today,’’ said safety Nick Addison, whose interception with 4:33 left iced the win for the Wildcats (4-1, 1-0), their 14th in a row against MEAC competition. “We needed this to help us get momentum.’’
 
Williams ran for a 31-yard touchdown and connected with Eddie Poole on a 15-yard TD pass. Williams completed all four of his passes for 86 yards.
 
Poole had four catches for 103 yards, including a 50-yard reception that set up his touchdown grab with 4:40 remaining.
 
“It was good for us to find a way to get it done in the second half,’’ B-CU coach Brian Jenkins said.
The Wildcats went into halftime tied 7-7 and looking for a way to stop the Hornets’ passing attack.
