Dutchmen Football Upset Bid Falls Just Short at Delaware Valley

DOYLESTOWN, Pa. – The Lebanon Valley football team put together a gritty performance on the road on Saturday nearly ending nationally-ranked Delaware Valley's record conference winning streak in a heart-breaking 21-17 defeat during the Aggies' Homecoming.
 
Delaware Valley (6-1, 6-0 MAC) scored on the opening drive of the game taking the ball downfield 68 yards in nine plays culminating in a three-yard touchdown run. The Aggies converted a two-point attempt to take an 8-0 lead. The Dutchmen (4-3, 4-2 MAC) responded right back as Braden Bohannon found Jay Sisko open down the right side for a 61-yard touchdown reception. LVC missed the extra point attempt and the score remained 8-6.
 
The teams traded punts until Luke Pollock had strip sack and recovered the fumble at the DVU 45 with 5:29 to go in the first half. LVC had an opportunity to take the lead, but Tim Kissinger's 49-yard field goal try was off the mark and the score stay 8-6 at halftime.
 
The Aggies scored first in the second half on a 18-yard rush to take a 14-6 lead. The Dutchmen cut the lead to 14-9 with 1:58 to go in the quarter on a Kissinger 49-yard field goal. LVC got a stop on defense to begin the fourth quarter as James Jackson picked off a pass at the LVC eight and returned it 27 yards. The Dutchmen used the momentum of the big play to drive the ball 65 yards in nine plays ending with a Bohannon two-yard touchdown run to take a 17-14 lead with 8:48 on the clock. Delaware Valley had a chance to tie the game with 1:14 to go but a 23-yard field goal was missed. LVC got the ball back and tried to run out the clock but the Aggies got three stops and used their three timeouts to get the back with 52 seconds needing to go 44 yards for the go-ahead score. DVU completed a couple passes to get the ball into the red zone and then scored the game-winning touchdown on a 10-yard pass with 14 seconds left.
