Delaware State’s last true 1,000-yard Hornet back still stands out
In the 2006 season, Emmanuel Marc rushed for 1,230 yards and 12 touchdowns for Delaware State, finishing second in the MEAC and averaging 6.6 yards per carry, which is the kind of burst-and-vision profile that jumps off the page[9][10]. He was also a second-team All-MEAC back and later credited with 1,401 career rushing yards and 14 touchdowns for the Hornets, so the résumé says efficient producer, not empty yards[1][4]. The bigger story: he carried real big-play juice, high-end contact balance, and enough consistency to be the last Delaware State runner to crack 1,000 yards in a season[9][10].
