Football - 2006 Season Archive

Head coach Jim Clements and the Aggies reached the postseason for the fourth consecutive season as they went 8-3 (7-2 in Middle Atlantic Conference) and were the Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC) South Atlantic Bowl runners-up.

Delaware Valley ended the regular season by shutting out three consecutive opponents. The Aggies were then selected for the ECAC playoffs and dropped a 15-9 decision to Salisbury University.

The Aggies were led all season by their senior class as 22 players competed in the final games of their collegiate careers. The group finished as the winningest class in school history with a 41-7 record, a pair of MAC championships, a pair of NCAA quarterfinal appearances and two ECAC postseason games (champions in 2003).

Delaware Valley had 11 players named to the all-MAC team, including senior defensive end Anthony Silver and junior linebacker John Pursell. The two were later named to All-American Teams as Silver was recognized by both D3football.com (honorable mention) and Don Hansen's Football Gazette (third team), while Pursell was named an honorable mention All-American by Don Hansen's Football Gazettte.
