Message from the President

 Welcome to the Delaware State University MEAC/SWAC Challenge home page. It is with great pride that I announce that the DSU Hornets Football Team has been invited to play against the Southern University Jaguars on Labor Day Weekend in the 6th Annual MEAC/SWAC Challenge sponsored by ESPN and Disney.

 
This is a tremendous opportunity to demonstrate pride and support for DSU as our football team and band represent us in the game of a lifetime in Orlando. The Citrus Bowl stadium boasts a capacity of 74,000 so DSU needs your support in filling the seats and cheering on our team and our band. 
 
DSU staff has been working diligently to provide all the information you will need to participate and enjoy the Orlando attractions here on this site. Send the link to family, friends and alumni, this will be an exciting and unique opportunity to get away, relax and show the SWAC fans that MEAC fans are a force to be reckoned with.
 
I look forward to seeing you on September 5th, 2010 in Orlando — let’s enjoy Disney — have some fun as a family, and most importantly, let’s claim victory for our Hornets!  
 
With Hornet Pride,
 
Harry L. Williams 
 
President
Delaware State University
