GREENSBORO, N.C. -- — Ryan O’Connor threw for one touchdown and ran for another to lead Delaware to a 42-13 win over North Carolina A&T in a Coastal Athletic Association opener for both teams Saturday.
O'Connor finished 23-of-41 passing for 325 yards including a 47-yard connection with Phil Lutz for the game's final points. O'Connor ran for a 23-yard TD to give the Fightin' Blue Hens (2-0) a 28-13 lead in the third quarter before Quincy Watson added a 17-yard score. Watson also had a 1-yard TD.
Delaware outgained the Aggies (1-2) 526-264. The Aggies had had three turnovers.
The Aggies' lone touchdown came on Aaron Harris' 70-yard interception return.
