Calling all Dolphins! We need your help. As Delgado kicks off its year-long 90th Anniversary celebration this fall, we are looking for archive contributions such as old jerseys, hats, team photos, athletic memorabilia, etc. to include in the festivities and print materials. The items can either be donated to our archives or borrowed and photographed to replace materials lost in the hurricane. Anyone interested in helping can contact Tyler Scheuermann at tscheu@dcc.edu.
