Bulldogs Open Division with Bite
Delhi began the
Section IV Division VII schedule with a show of strength, as the Bulldogs
overcame yet another slow start to roll along at 51-14.
Delhi recovered a
fumble on Hancock’s first possession. While the Bulldogs didn’t show complete
dominance at first, they were able to push the ball down the field, including
an impressive catch at the sideline by Jacob Haynes, which brought the ball to
the 1 yard line. Jack Fletcher then finished the drive with the TD run.
Delhi then
struggled a bit with stopping Hancock’s offense. Delhi gave up 5 first downs as
Hancock moved the ball inside of Delhi’s 10 yard line. Delhi’s defense
tightened, and, coupled with a Hancock penalty, brought the series to a 4th
and goal from the 19. The stop appeared to be complete when the lob pass fell
to the Delhi defender, but the ball tipped back out and fell into the hands of
Hancock’s Cody Wellman.
Delhi’s defense
then took control, however, as the Bulldogs allowed only 3 more first downs on
the next 7 possessions. Delhi also moved the ball well, but struggled with a
couple first half fumbles, keeping them from taking the game over. In the first
half, Delhi got another TD run from Fletcher, and a nice 45 yard TD catch and
run from Anthony Salerno to Haynes.
Delhi came out
completely dominant in the 2nd half, scoring 3 3rd quarter TD’s to go with 2 more TD’s in the first 2 minutes.
Delhi got another Haynes TD pass, 2 TD’s from Rich Ennist,
including a beauty of a 57 yard run, and a TD keeper by backup QB Ethan Sackett.
Overall, the
Bulldogs’ offense was very strong, tallying 456 yards to go with 18 first
downs. The defense was nearly as good, as outside of the first drive and a late
long TD run, the ‘Dogs gave up less than 100 yards.
On Saturday, Delhi
renews the Route 10 rivalry with Walton, who is 2-0 coming off a close win over
Windsor, and a 44-37 win over Sidney.
