Check out a new local sports site: Varsity570 (not to be confused with the Times Herald-Record's Varsity845, which also covers Delaware Valley... in more depth, too.)
Times-Leader rankings have DV football ranked 5th.
Also see DV's listing on WNEP.com.
He drops his shoulder, legs pumping, as he breaks through the line of scrimmage.Also...
This goes on for all four quarters. Delaware Valley (Pa.) running back Hank Neurouter keeps coming, punishing bulky linemen and blitzing linebackers with his relentless running. Neurouter, a senior, keeps plugging away, finding holes, picking up first downs.
And by the fourth quarter ...
"The defense is a step slower and we break a long run," Delaware Valley coach Keith Olsommer says. "You absorb some of his hits and, sooner or later, it's going to get to you. Hank might not be a kid of stature (5-9, 190 pounds), but he's physically fit, he's a weight-room guy."
Neurouter ran for 760 yards and eight touchdowns last year. But he has always ran hard, playing fullback in Pop Warner. His big hits will not only open holes for himself this season, but help free up running backs Dom Hopkins, a highly touted sophomore, and junior Kory Wilson.
"I like hitting people," Neurouter says. "It makes the game a lot more fun. I just want to put a shoulder down on as many people as I can."
