A swarming defense and an opportunistic offense powered Delaware to a win at Delaware State, in the Route 1 Rivalry. The Blue Hens forced four turnovers by the Hornets, which led to 14 of their 34 points.
Senior cornerback Nijuel Hill started the game off with an interception off of sophomore quarterback Jared Lewis. Following a Delaware punt, the Hornets surrendered the ball again on a fumble by sophomore Thomas Bertrand-Hudon that was recovered by junior safety Kedrick Whitehead.
