DSU finalizes 2008 football schedule

Delaware State University's 2008 football schedule will feature non-conference games against Kent State and Central Connecticut State, the school announced today.

The Hornets, who went 10-2 and earned their first Division I-AA playoff berth last season by winning the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference, open the 2008 season Sept. 6 at home against MEAC rival Florida A&M.

“This schedule is going to be challenging,” head coach Al Lavan said in a press release. “Opening with Florida A&M and then testing ourselves against an upper level program at Kent State. It will most certainly give us the opportunity to continue to grow our football program.”
