Delaware Hens outgained, but come up with victory vs. DSU

NEWARK, Delaware – The University of Delaware continued its dominance of Delaware State, grabbing an early 21-point lead and prevailing 38-14 in a nonconference football game interrupted by thunderstorms at Delaware Stadium today.

Ricky Tunstall got the 15th-ranked Blue Hens (2-0) started with a 91-yard interception return for a touchdown to open the scoring.



Blue Hen senior linebacker Paul Worrilow had a career-high 18 tackles and earned the Nate Beasley Award as the game’s outstanding player. Worrilow was the only starter for either team from a Delaware high school. He is a Concord High graduate.

The late Beasley started his college career at Delaware State before transferring to Delaware and becoming one of the Blue Hens’ leading all-time rushers. He also long championed the need for a UD-DSU game.
