UD Blue-White game at Cape Henlopen 8:55 a.m., March 22, 2006--For the first time in history, the University of Delaware football team will play its annual Blue-White spring scrimmage in Sussex County. Fightin' Blue Hens Head Coach K.C. Keeler and his squad will wrap up their month-long spring drills with the annual scrimmage to be held at noon, Saturday, April 15, at Cape Henlopen High School in Lewes. In case of bad weather, the game will be played at noon, Saturday, April 22, at the same site. Since its inception, the game has been played annually at Tubby Raymond Field at Delaware Stadium. However, the field is unavailable due to construction that began during the winter. “We are excited to move the game downstate,” Keeler said. “With Delaware Stadium unavailable this spring, we were looking for an alternate site to play the game and Sussex County seemed like the perfect fit. We have so many loyal fans throughout the state, including Sussex County. It's great to bring the game to their backyard.” All tickets will be general admission and are $5. Advance tickets can be purchased through the University of Delaware season ticket office at the Delaware Field House or by calling (302) 831-2257. Tickets also will be available in Lewes at Cape Henlopen High School, the Roadhouse Steak Joint and Blue Hen Disposal. A limited number of tickets also will be sold at the stadium the day of the game. |
