NEWARK, DE -- The University of
Delaware women's basketball team overcame a cold-shooting
night but dominated on the boards for a 60-46 non-league
victory over intrastate rival Delaware State Wednesday night
at the Bob Carpenter Center.
Senior guard Cindy Johnson led
four scorers in double figures with 14 points and senior
forward Danielle Leyfert and junior guard Megan
Dellegrotti each chipped in with 12 as the Blue Hens
(10-3) won their fifth straight game and extended their home
winning streak to 12 games over two seasons. Each of the 12
straight home wins have been by 10 or more
points.
Delaware State (3-8), which lost its
fifth straight game and second in two nights, got 10 points
off the bench from Keysha Tiller while Ashley Etheridge
scored nine points, pulled six rebounds, and dished out four
assists. Delaware has now defeated Delaware State in all
eight meetings in the series.
The Blue Hens shot just 30.3 percent from
the field, hitting on 20 of 66 shots, but held a 55-34
rebounding advantage as junior forward Christina
Rible pulled down 15 rebounds and Leyfert, Christine
Cole, and Tracey Howell each collected nine. The
Hens, who also hit just 17 of 26 shots from the foul line,
had 24 offensive rebounds.
Delaware State did not fare much better
from the field, hitting on 15 of 49 shots (.306) while
committing 18 turnovers. The Hornets misfired on their first
11 field goal attempts of the game and did not score a field
goal until Tiller connected at the 9:24 mark to cut the
Delaware lead to 12-6.
Delaware State battled back to cut the
Delaware halftime lead to 25-23 and pulled to within seven
points at 38-31 with 11:19 left in the game before the Blue
Hens moved on with a 13-1 run to go up 51-32 with 5:19 left
to play. Allison Trapp (11 points) scored five points
in the run while Leyfert and Dellegrotti each scored four to
lead the way. Delaware led by as much as 20 points at 58-38
with 2:18 left before DSU made a late run.
