    ·UD, Newark police team up Q&A with Florence + the Women's soccer beats for crime suppression Machine's stylist Siena 4-1 See page 3 Seepage 21 Seepage 28 Tuesday, September 13, 2011 breaking news and more. Volume. 138, Issue 3 Blue Hens play gatne honoring Sept. 11 BY KERRY. BOWDEN and DAN MOBERGER The Review Nearly 10 years to the day after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and the Hens were in action against the same team they were supposed to play just days after the tragedy. On Sept. 15th, 2001, the Hens were scheduled to play the West Chester Golden Rams. The game, along with all other athletic events of that weekend, was cancelled because of 9/11. Instead, they waited a week and a half after the attacks to return to action. The Hens were one of the first college football teams to get back on the field after 9/11 and on Sept. 22nd they ran all over Massachusetts to 276 rushing yards and a 35-7 home victory. During the 10-year gap, Delaware has defeated West Chester each year. More often ~han not, the wins have come in the form of blowouts, as the Hens have been victorious by more than 20 points in eight of the nine contests. Before this week's game, servicemen and women flooded the field to celebrate S~rvice Appreciation Day and commemorate those who lost tbeir lives 10 years ago. Despite' the team's yearly dismantling of West Chester, this Saturday's 28-17 win was not quite the blowout the patriotic crowd had expected.

    BLUE HEN 1999 1999 BLUE HEN U of D NEWARK, DE 19716 (302)831-2000 http://www. udel .edu Volume LXXXVIII 1 Homecoming festivities: Bring your own mud BY MELISSA SCOTT SINCLAIR Staff Reporter for the Review It was the first dry Homecoming in four years. Dry referring to the absence of rain and mud — not the absence of alcohol. While the Fightin' Blue Hens battled the Northeastern Huskies in a stadium packed with football fans, thousands of university students and alumni mingled under tents set up on the Woods Lot behind Delaware Stadium. Spectators in the stadium cheered for every Delaware touchdown. But celebrants on the field cheered for a different reason. For them, the beer was here. Tve never seen so many 30-packs in my life," sophomore Matt Clement said, "It's crazy/' Fraternities, sororities and other student groups — including the crew team, the sailing team and hotel/restaurant management majors — set up tents providing seemingly limitless amounts of alco- hol. While some wandered from tent to tent sampling the food and drinks, others reclined on the grass or stood talking in groups. Some tailgaters remembered last year's festival as less subdued. University Police Capt. James Flatley recalled 1997's festivities this way: "Things really got out of hand." Homecoming turned rowdy last year when students started tackling each other in the mud. "Officers had to get the situation under control," Flatley said. This year, the only problem police had to deal with, he said, was "lots of underage possession and consumption of alcohol." A Zeta Beta Tau alumnus bartending at the fraternity's tent said he didn't expect university police to interfere with his fraternity serving alcohol to anyone and everyone.
