New Hampshire 75, Delaware
68
January 29, 2000
DURHAM, NH -- Orsi Farkas scored a
career-high 35 points and pulled 10 rebounds as New
Hampshire defeated Delaware, 75-68, in women's basketball
action Saturday afternoon at the Whiitemore
Center.
New Hampshire (10-9, 5-5 America East), a
1999 WNIT participant, avenged a loss to Delaware earlier in
the season. The Blue Hens won the first meeting in Newark,
75-56, earlier this month. Delaware (12-7, 5-5) had won the
last three meetings between the two clubs.
Danielle Leyfert led Delaware with
22 points and seven rebounds. Cindy Johnson added 13
points, while Christina Rible posted her seventh
double-double of the season with 10 points and 10
rebounds.
"Defensively we didn't do a good job
controlling Farkas," said Delaware head coach Tina
Martin. "I was disappointed with the team's energy,
especially in the first half. We just weren't ready to play
in the first half. In the second half, we did play harder.
New Hampshire was mentally ready today and Delaware was
not."
Delaware's inability to take care of the
basketball and Farkas' hot shooting led to a 34-23 halftime
lead for New Hampshire. Farkas tallied 18 of her points in
the first half on 9 of 11 shooting from the field. She also
had seven rebounds of her 10 rebounds in that half.
Meanwhile, the Blue Hens recorded 14 of their 17 turnovers
in the first 20 minutes and shot just 8 for 24 from the
field.
Delaware got back to within five, 57-52,
on two Suzanne Street free throws with 5:41 to play.
However, New Hampshire would hold the Blue Hens off until
the final minute.
Trailing 67-59 with 2:30 to play,
Delaware went on a 9-4 run. The Blue Hens took advantage of
missed free throws by the Wildcats and pulled within 71-68
on a Leyfert drive with 25.2 seconds to play. However, that
would be the last points of the day for Delaware, as it
failed to score on its next two possessions and the Wildcats
canned four free throws for the final margin.
Farkas' 35 points tied for the
sixth-highest scoring day by an opponent against
Delaware.
