Re: Recruiting

What an amazing story! I spend 3 months a year teaching English to kids in the DR and can appreciate his tight family and their support. I am pulling for this kid hard and hope to be wearing his jersey next January in the DR.

Re: 2026 Baseball

1-13 in conference and our pitchers have given up the most hits & walks in the league. Something needs to change.

Re: Delle Donne HOF

She was quite arguably the most accomplished athlete ever to attend the University of Delaware. I had the good fortune to referee a number of her basketball games while she was at Ursuline, and throughly enjoyed watching her play at UD during her record-breaking collegiate career. That UNC NCAA tou...

Re: Women's Lacrosse

Hens defeat Jacksonville today 14-13 and move to 3-0 in the conference. Jacksonville has won the ASUN regular season title 11 consecutive years so real nice win for the ladies.

Re: 2026 Baseball

Would love to know what happened in the bottom of the 8th. We are up 1 run, 5-4, and we received 2 walks to start the the inning. But with runners on 1st and 2nd and nobody out, the 8th and 9th place hitters in our lineup end up both striking out? I would LOVE to know if either of them tried to lay...

Re: 2026 Baseball

I don't disagree at all that CUSA is a tougher conference and the Hens will need some time to upgrade their roster and game to meet this higher level competition. With that said, it doesn't matter what conference we are in if we can't throw the ball over the damn plate. 7.25 walks per 9 innings, 288...

THis is an interesting take Dan. We were 9-17 when Houser went down and we lost to WIlmington & Del St playing 9 and 8 scholarship players, respectively. Del St finished 7-22

Re: The Odds: Sam Houston State

Been tracking tiebreakers for the year and if the Blue Hens finish top 10 to end the regular season, it will come down to multiple required outcomes just like on the football bowl-tracking finale. For basketball, this isn't as complicated. We need a: 1. Delaware win against Louisiana Tech 2. Florid...

Re: 2026 Baseball

Agree. Pod system or not, job 1 of a pitcher is to throw strikes. 62 walks in 64 innings, 289th out of 300 D1 teams

Re: UD Coaching Extensions

I am ok with the Soccer coach and Carty's extensions and I think MI has done an admirable job with the hand he's been dealt this year but there aren't many other schools out there where you can have that kind of conference record over 10 years and still have your job.
