Friday Night Lights


The Red Devils lit up the night Oct. 21 when they captured a dramatic win against McDaniel College during the first night game of the season. 

Some Dickinsonians heightened the excitement by painting their faces in Red Devil hues and donning devilish spirit-wear. They all cheered wildly when, with just 7:25 remaining, Kyle Smith '14 scored the touchdown that secured the Devils' 17-16 win.

Read all about the big game.
