Delmar Plans To Rely On Impact Two-Way Players

August 29, 2017 Posted by Matt Pencek Featured Sports, Football, Local Sports

A two game losing streak at the end of the 2016 derailed Delmar’s drive for spot in the Delaware playoffs. Wildcat head coach David Hearn must find a new quarterback and new starters on both sides of the line.

On defense he does have All-Henlopen South Second Team Linebacker Brooks Parker. “He’s one of those players who’s going to have to stay on the field,” Hearn said. “He’ll be key in what we do.”

Another player who likely will spend nearly every minute on the field is A.J. Angello. He is a starter in the defensive backfield and has the slight lead to start at quarterback.
