65-57 final. These games just matter to prepare for conference play… and I’m happy to see us turn a slow second half start into a comfortable win here at home. Lots of positives and lots we can work on, which is a good spot to be after the 3rd game of the season. My highlight? Jalun Trent showing up on both ends of the floor at the end. Next game… at Delaware State Wednesday

Little iffy there for the first part of the second half but nice win. Absolutely love Trent’s game, hopefully he can just flash a bit of an outside shot this year to bring the defense out to him.

Won’t show up in the box score but thought Ray had a really nice game as well.

Our length is really going to frustrate teams this year.

Still early but like how the team has responded when the opposing team made a run (Bucknell, AF). Finding the right combination will be key which is what the OOC is for.

We still have Bethea who is a very good shooter and will hopefully see the floor soon.

Depth will be a strength but I can see the rotation tightening as we get to conf play.

Will be disappointed if we aren’t 4-0 headed to Bahamas

Against a motion offense today (ie; W&M) we switched on defense as smoothly and efficiently as I have seen any Delaware team do.

Watched on TV, many of those 2,000 were dressed as empty seats!

That said, I liked how they refocused after falling behind by 2. Props to the coaching staff for a 3-0 start with 5 transfers in the top 8 or so to start the season.

Just to be clear: you were at home and decided to post a snide remark about a lack of attendance at the game. :lol: :lol: :lol:

5 hours of yard work yesterday pal, but never let the FACTS ruin a good story!

I was at the game vs GBC & the same was true that night!

BTW - anytime you can't make a game, I’d be happy to take your season tickets off your hands. How many do you have and on what section so I can plan ahead. Thanks

Nobody cares what you did yesterday.

My first look at the 23/24 Hens, They have some nice pieces, need to see it come together.

My only take: Coach is still trying to figure out what He has, The rotation will tighten up and be shorter once CAA time comes around.
When it comes to Basketball, "I'm smarter than you and you know it"!! :twisted:

Don't care what your excuse is. If you are not at the game, don't criticize the fact that there are empty seats. You are an example of the problem with so-called UD fans. Show up ----- then you can take shots at those empty seats.
P.S. I plan to use my season tickets for every home game.

Maybe you should ask your fellow STH’s to donate their unused tickets to a local charity, I'm sure it would be greatly appreciated!
