Week 4 Stats:
154 rush yards, 20 rushes, TD rush, 7.7 ypc

DeBique carried the load for the LIU offense in its 31-20 home victory over Merrimack. The veteran tailback averaged 7.7 yards per rush attempt, accounting for more than 89.0 percent of the Sharks’ 173 net yards on the ground. DeBique carried 20 times for 154 yards and one touchdown. He moved the chains on six of his rushes. His 58-yard burst down to the 2-yard line set up a short touchdown pass that extended LIU’s lead to 21-6 early in the second quarter. After Merrimack jumped out to an early 6-0 lead, DeBique capped the Sharks’ first scoring drive with a one-yard TD rush. He also recorded a 31-yard jaunt that fueled LIU’s second touchdown drive of the opening quarter.
