WEEK 2 STATS: 91 rush yards, 9 carries, 1 rush TD
Cropper saw his first collegiate action during the Red Flash’s home opener and the true freshman made immediate contributions to a 45-14 runaway win over MEAC member Delaware State. After gaining three yards on his first career carry late in the third quarter, Cropper took the 2nd-and-7 handoff through the right side and raced 65 yards for a touchdown. He recorded two 11-yard gains, both of which resulted in first downs, with the Red Flash attempting to run out the clock in the fourth quarter. Averaging 10.1 yards per tote, Cropper totaled 91 yards on nine rushes.
