HBCU football twins set to face off in SIAC rivalry matchup
Fraternal twins Darnell and Darren Stephen will line up on opposite sides of the HBCU football gridiron when Fort Valley State and Clark Atlanta kick off their football seasons on Saturday at Wildcat Stadium, marking the twins’ final season as SIAC rivals.
Darnell, a cornerback for Fort Valley State, and Darren, a wide receiver for Clark Atlanta, were inseparable until they committed to play football at separate HBCU institutions.
The twins’ , Nicole Stephens, a banker and South Carolina State alumna, recalls the earlier years when their competitive spirits began to shine. “I always kept them very busy, whether it was football, track, basketball, wrestling, or even robotics, chess, and sign language club,” Nicole said. “I wanted them to be well-rounded, and anything they put their hands on, they’ve always tried to master it. Football just came naturally for them.”
