Special teams hurt DSU Hornets again in homecoming loss
DOVER, Delaware -- Special teams continue to be far from special for the Delaware Sate University football team.
And the quarterback position continues to be a gigantic question mark.
A blocked punt and a pick-six gave North Carolina A&T a big advantage and the Aggies held on for a 33-20 victory to spoil the Hornets’ homecoming in MEAC action Saturday afternoon.
Seven times a punt has resulted in a touchdown for the opposition this season for DelState (2-2 MEAC, 2-6 overall). The latest instance came in the second quarter when D’Vonte Grant blocked Jeremiah McGeough’s punt, which allowed Jerom Beatty to recover for a touchdown and a 14-0 lead.
Of those seven touchdowns, four have been recoveries after a punt block.
Beatty’s touchdown spurred the Aggies (3-1, 6-2) to a 24-0 halftime lead.
