Junior running back Antawn Jenkins scored two touchdowns, including a 45-yard scamper in the opening five minutes of the game, as the No. 22 ranked University of Delaware made a winner of new head coach K.C. Keeler in his UD debut with a 22-19 non-league football victory over No. 5 Georgia Southern at Delaware Stadium.

Keeler, a former Delaware standout linebacker who served the previous nine seasons as head coach at NCAA Division III Rowan University where he led the team to five national championship game appearances, was a winner in his UD debut, marking the 10th straight year his team has won its season opener.
