To the Dover football players and program it’s been a blessing to be able to coach 6 awesome years. This past year I gained so much knowledge of the game. Dover football whenever you are ready to have me back on staff you know where to find me.
Finishing the season with a 6-4 record was not what we wanted. Our team fought through adversity from the beginning of camp. I am proud to have coached these young men. As the season passed these men became a better team with great team culture.
I bleed Dover blue and white with

doing there thing on the next level! KP was able to break down every offense on a different level than any Dlineman this year. He has a special talent in breaking down offenses! Best of luck to you both!
This hits different and hard both yesterday and today. While we have our rivalry game today. Dover football lost a great coach. Coach Mark Young was my coach in middle and high school and I had the honor to coach next to him the last few months. This one is for you coach!
Love seeing the progression of a program from middle school to high school. All schools are focused on specific goals that will carry that will carry up through their high school.
I’d never imagined going back to the Wesley football room to discuss football. I’m blessed to assist in continuing the development of Dover’s football program. I once lost my passion of football. However I’m forever grateful to help the youth of my community. TOGETHER!!!
Thank you to my friend and mentor
@CoachSims1983
for taking the chance and bringing me on staff 5 years ago. Congrats to you for finally earning that championship after 17 years.
Dline went out and handled their business! Not all goals were obtained. We will clean that up with some

work this work! Good job young men. Way to be 1-0 on the week!
Ryan Perkins (‘26, DE) adds a double here. Really simple and impressive swing gets it done. Uses the strength in the hands to barrel it up and work backside for the XBH.

That’s BS. They won’t close schools down but they will shut down a sports season! These kids dreams will crushed and will never be able to get a hs season back! Horrible decision!!!
I was raised a Rider. Played as a Panther. Now I am coaching Senators! I couldn’t be happier in raising this little future Senator! May this young boy succeed in everything he does!
Let’s welcome freshman infielder BRANDON YODER to The Cave! From Dover, Delaware, Brandon is studying finance at Salisbury University. Fun fact, he was an all-state football kicker/punter!

Steve Scanlon. We talk about how coach overcame academic probation, a serious health scare, and much more to become Coach of the Year in South Jersey! 👇🏼
It’s a great day when you having willing Dlineman do some extra work. Putting in that little more to improve yourself, your unit and team is 🔑. Future seniors learning new techniques and assisting young players. I love the heart of this unit! TrenchSquad
@mikey011606
This is not the path I envisioned the program would be heading myself. This is how the sports world and school system works. I will still be around the school if you and any football player ever need anything.
TOWEL CATCHES for Punt Returner.
In order to teach punt returners to catch a punt with tight elbows, roll up two towels and have them squeeze under their armpits.
If their elbows flair out, the towels will hit the ground!
#TEAMSTALK
Due to vo-tech students transferring mid season without loss of PT, vo-techs shutting programs down mid season, questioning of student pop numbers of private/charter schools; there should be 3 state championships in DE. D1, D2, and Parochial/Charters/Vo-techs
I couldn’t imagine being the head coach of a high school telling my players they cannot play or travel to 7v7 games/tourneys because we are bringing players who never come to practice or team workouts.

@SeanGreeneWDEL
How is it that there has been men’s lax tourneys from teams across the nation these last few weeks? Yet we can’t get approval for our student athletes to throw and catch a ball to each other.
Congrats to former Wesley alumni and football teammate for receiving south jerseys football coach of the year!

150’+ as a junior is a great accomplishment! Forever cherish this moment. At the same time don’t forget that was your junior season! Great things await you starting now! Don’t pump the breaks now. Take that state record next year!

@ERoth88
have been doing great things for our offense and defense since their Frosh year! My 1st year coaching is when this crew came to DHS. We knew from their 1st day at at their 1st camp this crew had a different mentality. Give everything and leave nothing!
Dover will be playing St. George’s at Dover Stadium 7pm.
@DoverSenatorsFB
is 3-0 against St. George’s since 2021 (2 regular season wins and 1 post-season wins). Dover is looking to get to it’s first State Championship game since 2001.

Last home game at Drass Field! The best smallest college that never won a D3 Football chip but X’s were always on our backs. A college of maybe 1900 students sustained success. We are the best smallest college in football 2004-2021.

For those single sport spring/winter standouts who could’ve been multi sport athletes how did that work out during Covid-19? You can’t change the past. How can YOU help the next generation on becoming multi sport athletes? If you pay to play, you choose the path you want to hear!
Another head scratcher of Covid rules-
#NFL
HC & organizations get fined for not wearing masks with min social interactions. However
#NFLPA
don’t need to wear masks in game or shaking hands post game. I guess that means only coaches catches the covid but not football players.

Wait...I’m just saying all of the DE tourney Dickinson used a computer simulated helmet to get to the finals. The same helmet they used to get the finals isn’t used for the national tourney? Not hating...just wondering the disconnect.
Dline it is time to make you work a little harder. Expectations will continue to rise. Rise up to each challenge and succeed as a unit and team.

Remember!!! 3-5 camps
Preference to places that personally invited you & regionally close (most programs recruit locally and from a pipeline)
1 - Dream School/P5/Mega camp (preferably one regionally close to home)
1-2 - regional FCS/D2
1-2 - Local D3 or NAIA

Attacks the set then changes his rush angle off the jab step. He gets vertical as he chops the blocker’s low-setting outside hand down.
Violent shoulder turn/step through on the club, gets his toes pointed to the QB & wins!

It’s not about how hard you practice. It’s how well you prepare for the game. How healthy is the food you are eating, what film did you break down on your own, how much did you participate in practice, how did you improve physically and mentally?
