Keith Walker was officially introduced as head coach of the Hornets on Apr. 15, 2014. He served as DSU's interim head coach for 11 games after being appointed to the position on Jan. 30, 2014. In his first full season as head coach of the Hornets during the 2014-15 campaign, he led the team to its first MEAC championship game and post-season appearance since 2007. The Hornets defeated Savannah State, Howard and top seed North Carolina Central to advance to the 2015 MEAC title game. NC Central was undefeated during the 2014-15 MEAC regular season. Delaware State was invited to compete in the 2015 College Basketball Invitational (CBI) and serve as host of a first round game, marking the first post-season home game in team history. Among the other highlights of Walker s first full season as head coach of the Hornets was 72-65 win at Wake Forest, Delaware State s first-ever victory against an Atlantic Coast Conference opponent. The Hornets also posted impressive road wins at Penn in the historic Palestra (77-75) and Delaware (66-53) during the 2014-15 season. Walker is also credited with aiding the development of center Kendall Gray, who became the second player in league history to earn MEAC Player-of-the-Year and Defensive Player-of-the-Year in the same season (2014-15). Last season, Gray also became the first player in recorded NCAA Div. I history to reach 30 points (33) and grab 30 rebounds in a game (Mar. 5, 2015 vs. Coppin State). Also during the 2014-15 season, Amere May became the first Delaware State player to lead the MEAC in scoring in more than 20 years. Walker first joined the Delaware State staff as an assistant coach in July 2000. During his stint as the interim coach, Walker led the Hornets to a 5-6 overall record and 5-5 mark in the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference. Prior to the appointment, the team was 4-15 overall and 0-6 in the conference. Delaware State posted a season-high three-game win streak, highlighted by a victory over MEAC Tournament runner-up Morgan State, during Walker s stint as interim head coach. During the 2013-14 season, Hornet junior center Kendall Gray set a team record with 81 blocks. Gray was named to the 2014 All-MEAC Second Team. Gray held the previous team record with 75 blocks as a sophomore the previous year. The Hornets recorded 185 blocks during the 2012-13 campaign, the second-best single-season mark in team history. During the 2011-12 season, Walker s work with the Hornet big men was instrumental in the team's school-record 192 blocks, shattering the record previously held by the 1989-90 squad. Delaware State was tops in the MEAC and fifth among all NCAA Division I teams at 6.6 blocks per game during the 2011-12 campaign. In addition, DSU power forward Marques Oliver moved into first place on the team's list for career blocks that season. Oliver finished his career with 222 blocks. Walker helped lead the Hornets to three consecutive MEAC regular season titles from 2004 to '07, during which the Hornets posted a league record of 46-8 (.850). The Hornets appeared in three consecutive MEAC Tournament championship games, capturing the title and accompanying NCAA Tournament berth in 2005. The following year, Delaware State defeated Northern Arizona on the road in the National Invitation Tournament for the team's only national post-season win. The Hornets also appeared in the 2007 National Invitation Tournament. HEAD COACH KEITH WALKER Walker served as head coach at Division II Shaw University in Raleigh, N.C., for seven seasons from 1993 to 2000. He posted a 91-102 overall record at Shaw, including a 21-9 mark and the school s first-ever NCAA Tournament berth during the 1994-95 season. He led the team to a 17-9 mark in the 1997-98 campaign. The Bears finished in the Top 10 of the Sheridan Broadcast Network Black College poll during two of Walker's seasons. In 1998, he coached a team of U.S. collegiate players to a bronze medal at a tournament in Russia. From 1987 to '93, Walker was an assistant coach at Indiana University of Pennsylvania. IUP was ranked number one in the NCAA Division II poll during parts of three seasons while Walker was on the staff. Before entering the coaching ranks, he enjoyed a playing career that included a brief stint with the NBA's Philadelphia 76ers during the 1985-86 season. Prior to reaching the NBA, Walker played a total of seven years with various European and U.S. professional basketball leagues. As a collegiate player at Clemson University, he helped lead the Tigers to a 23-9 overall record and an Elite Eight appearance in the NCAA Tournament during the 1979-80 season. Walker earned a 1981 Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from Clemson in 1981; and a master s degree in Student Personnel Services from Indiana University of Pennsylvania in 1991.

FGs Hornet 2017-18 2016-17 Honors HONORS Devin All-MEAC Morgan Preseason Second Team Kavon Waller Preseason (sr.) All-MEAC Forward Second Team DeAndre Haywood Preseason All-MEAC Third Team SHOOTING WOES Delaware State is looking to break out of a season-long shooting slump. Through 11 games, the Hornets are shooting just 39.1% from the field (240-for-614). DSU has yet to hit the 50% mark in a game this season. Delaware State was a 41.9% shooting team during the 2016-17 season. The Hornets are also struggling from three-point range this season, hitting just 57 of 201 shots from beyond the arc for a 28.4% clip. Last season, DSU shot 41.9% from the floor and 36.2% from three-point range. Delaware State is averaging 5.2 three-pointers per game this season, down from 8.2 per contest a year ago. The three-ball played a key role in Delaware State s fortunes during the 2016-17 season. The Hornets were tops in the MEAC in three-point FG percentage (.361) and second in three-pointers per game (8.4 pg) last season. DSU was 244-for-676 from beyond the arc a year ago. The 263 threes last season were the second-best single season mark in team history, trailing only the 282 in 36 games by the 2014-15 squad. INTERNATIONAL FLAVOR The 2017-18 Hornets again have a distinct international flavor. DSU s roster includes three international players. Center Demola Onifade (so.), born in Lagos, Nigeria, joined the team as a freshman in 2015-16. Onifade came to America at age 16, and attended Camden Catholic HS in N.J. Russia-born Artem Tavakalyan is in fourth year at Delaware State. He joined the Hornets before the 2015-16 season after attending the Florida Air Academy. Junior center Simon Okolue is of Nigerian descent, although he born in the U.S. TAVAKALYAN PROVIDES SPARK OFF THE BENCH Delaware State senior Artem Tavakalyan has made the most of his recent role as a reserve. Tavakalyan started the Hornets first five games, but has come off the bench in the last six contests. In the last five games, the Moscow, Russia native has scored 64 points (12.8 ppg), while shooting 60% from the floor (23-for-40), including 64.3% from threepoint range (9-for-14). Tavakalyan came off the bench to score a team -and-career-high 20 points in DSU s 63-57 loss to East Carolina on Dec. 2, going 8-for-12 from the field and 3-of-4 on three-point shots in the game. He also led the Hornets with 13 points in a reserve role at Duquesne in the team s most recent contest on Dec. 9. Tavakalyan scored a team-high 18 points in the season opener against Div. II Cairn in his best game as a starter. For the season, he s tied for second on the Hornets with a 10.2 point per average, is second on the team with 12 three-points and third on the squad in rebounding at 4.8 per game. STINGERS Delaware State has held halftime leads in two of its last three games, but came up short in each game The Hornets Feb. 12 contest at Norfolk State is scheduled to be televised live on ESPNU as part of the 2017-18 MEAC/ESPN television contract Delaware State has three or more blocks in eight games this season DSU is fourth in the MEAC in blocks at 3.1 per game (as of Dec. 14) the Hornets have used seven different starting line-ups this season center Simon Okolue is the only Hornet to start all 11 games The Hornets will play their next three games on the road, beginning with a Dec. 19 contest at Pittsburgh, followed by visits to Nebraska (Dec. 22) and Penn (Dec. 29).
