Rider Wed 7pm

Post by DaveB »

Hens early fav by 10.5.

Rider has been a thorn in Delawares side for some time.

They are 2-8 with 4 of those losses against Nebraska, #5 Marquette, Maryland and Duquesne.

They have a solid starting 5 with not much depth. Former Sallies big Tariq Abraham 6’9 255, avg 7 and 7, mans the middle for Rider.

Limit turnovers and be smart and this should be a win .

Will the hens recognize the BOB? :lol: :lol:

We completed the longest road trip anyone in DIV1 will experience this year and came out of it with a 5-3 record, that easily could have been 6-2 or 7-1. Only UNCG was clearly better than us.

Get the W tonight. This could be a fun winter of Blue Hens basketball.

Wasn’t able to make it tonight so watching on Flo. Bethea is progressing and return should be “soon.”

Houser is so slow. Just can’t see him being a significant contributor this season. He can’t even get his shot off.

Rider shooting near 60%. Have to think that comes down a bit. Hens could desperately use Bethea. 2-12 from 3.

Perhaps the worst halftime promotion in history. Some kid just won UD stickers.

Really bad loss…so much for the mid-major top 25…
