The Hornets came into Thursdays home opener as the underdogs but after a few big plays were able to come away with the victory. The 16 yard TD run by Sean Weston in the 4th Q with under two minutes remaining was the play that put the Hornets up for good. Patrick Fisher Butler finished the night with two key field goals including a 52 yarder, which was the second longest in school history. The longest TD of the night was a 72 yard TD by WR Jaylin Terzado which gave DSU their first lead of the evening.

The Hornets now will hit the road to face William & Mary on Saturday September 5th before coming back home to face Bowie State on the 12th.
