DeJoun Lee ran for one touchdown, Zach Gwynn passed for two more and Delaware upended William & Mary's recent rise into the top-ranked FCS teams with a 24-3 defeat on Saturday. The Tribe, ranked No. 23 in the FCS coaches poll for the first time since 2015, took their game-opening drive 12-plays in 6:30 but ended with Ethan Chang's 24-yard field goal. Delaware struck twice after William & Mary turnovers — scoring touchdowns after a fumble recovery and then taking over on downs. The Blue Hens (5-4, 3-3 Colonial Athletic Association) scored 24 unanswered points with Lee getting the ball rolling with his 12-yard sp rint around left end to give Delaware a 7-3 lead late in the first quarter in just two plays.

Gwynn fired a 25-yard TD pass to James Collins early in the second quarter. Darius Wilson completed 12 of 24 passes for 123 yards with one interception for William & Mary (6-3, 4-2), which had won six of its previous seven games, including a 31-18 upset of then-No. 4 Villanova to end October. Delaware shut down the Tribe's conference-leading ground game (216.9 yards), holding eight William & Mary ball carriers to 105 yards on 41 carries and an average gain of 2.6 yards per carry. Liam Trainor and Josh Buchanan led the Blue Hens defense with 12 tackles each. Delaware made nine tackles for loss, forced two turnovers and had three sacks. - AP College Football

Dejoun Lee ran for 100 yards and a touchdown and Delaware held off a late comeback attempt to earn a 17-10 win over Dixie State on Saturday. The Blue Hens denied Dixie State positive rushing yardage on 26 carries. Delaware did all its scoring in the first half. Anthony Paoletti punched in from the 3 to cap a nine-play, 75-yard opening drive and, after Ryan Coe missed a 52-yard field goal attempt, Lee's 1-yard run capped an 81-yard, seven-play drive. Kobe Tracy fired 20 yards to hit Michael Moten for a touchdown to get the Trailblazers on the scoreboard and Coe answered with a 43-yard field goal.

Connor Brooksby converted a 33-yard field goal in the third quarter to cut the Delaware lead to 17-10. Two key penalties - a personal foul for targeting and defensive pass interference - got Dixie State well into Delaware territory in the final minutes, but Tracy threw back-to-back incompletions from the Blue Hens' 32-yard-line. Delaware (4-4) rushed for 165 yards and Zach Gwynn was 19 of 28 for 215 yards. Lee, who is second in the Colonial Athletic Association averaging 138.3 all-purpose yards per game, added four catches for 18 yards. Tracy completed 25 of 39 attempts for 314 yards and a touchdown and was picked off once to lead Dixie State (0-8). Delaware's 17 points is the fewest the Trailblazers' defense has allowed this season. - AP College Football

Dejoun Lee rushed for 112 yards and a touchdown, Anthony Paoletti added a TD on the ground with 3:37 left for an 11-point lead and Delaware beat Albany 20-15 on Saturday. One play after Paoletti's 3-yard score, Jeff Undercuffler completed a pass to Tyler Oedekoven for a 75-yard touchdown. But Delaware recovered the onside kick and ran out the clock on first-down runs by Lee and Quincy Watson. Lee topped 100 yards on 19 carries to move within 11 yards of the 2,000-yard rushing club for Delaware (3-1, 2-0 Colonial Athletic Association), which is ranked No. 10 in the FCS coaches poll. Colby Reeder had six tackles and one sack, and Nijuel Hill made an interception deep in Delaware territory early in the fourth. Undercuffler was 12 of 30 for 193 yards with one touchdown and one interception for Albany (0-4, 0-2). Oedekoven made one catch. Dylan Burns kicked two 45-yard field goals in the first quarter to give Albany a 6-3 lead after Ryan Coe made a 44-yarder for Delaware. Burns added a 29-yarder to pull within 13-9 early in the fourth. - AP College Football

Nolan Henderson was 18-of-23 passing for 263 yards and a touchdowns to help Delaware beat St. Francis (PA) 27-10 on Saturday night. Ryan Coe made field goals of 36 and 26 yards before Dejoun Lee scored on a 1-yard run to cap a 14-play, 58-yard drive with 15 seconds left in the first half and give Delaware (2-0) a 13-3 lead. Anthony Paoletti added a 1-yard touchdown run with six minutes left in the third quarter.

Jyron Russell pulled the handoff on a zone-read play and raced untouched down the right sideline for a 66-yard touchdown to trim the deficit to 20-10 about four minutes later but Henderson hit Thyrick Pitts in stride in the back of the end zone for a 30-yard TD to cap the scoring with early in the fourth quarter. Russell finished 14-of-25 passing for 165 yards with an interception and added six carries for 76 yards for St. Francis (0-2).

08/06/21 - Joshua Youngblood, rSr/2024, Delaware + More +

Rutgers brought in a speedy, dynamic wide receiver/kick returner last year in Wisconsin transfer Aron Cruickshank. Now they have another in Youngblood, a transfer from Kansas State. Youngblood was an All-American kick returner as a true freshman in 2019 and the Big 12 Special Teams Player of the Year after returning three kickoffs for touchdowns, a national best. He'll be another weapon for Rutgers and special teams coordinator Adam Scheier. It'll also be interesting to see how much the Scarlet Knights incorporate him into the offense early on. Youngblood was limited in spring practices because of injury, but Schiano said at Big Ten media days that the 5-foot-10, 180-pound Youngblood was feeling "much better." "He's got an opportunity to jump in there and become not only a return guy, but in our wide receiver rotation," Schiano said. - Asbury Park Press

06/30/21 - Kyron Cumby, rSr/2025, Delaware + More +

The Illinois football team has added a plethora of transfers this offseason entering Bret Bielema's first season in charge. The Illini have also lost a handful of players, too. Six members of last year's team are no longer with the program, the team confirmed on Tuesday, and two quarterbacks who started at least one game last season for the Illini are now at different positions. A whirlwind day of roster reshuffling saw running back Kyron Cumby, offensive lineman Brevyn Jones, offensive lineman Blaise Sparks, defensive lineman Tre'Von Riggins and defensive lineman Anthony Shipton all confirm via social media posts they have left the Illini program and entered the transfer portal. Cumby saw brief playing time at both running back and wide receiver during the last two seasons with the Illini. The 5-8, 180-pound Cumby played in nine games at Illinois, hauling in four receptions for 42 yards and running twice for 11 yards while returning four punts for 51 yards. - News Gazette Tribune
