NEWARK, DE -- Cindy Johnson scored a game-high 22 points to lead five Delaware players in double-figures as the Blue Hens won their 13th straight game, 81-66, over Drexel in women's basketball action at the Bob Carpenter Center Sunday afternoon. In front of a school record crowd for a single women's basketball game of 2,391, the Blue Hens raised their mark to 18-3 overall and a perfect 12-0 in America East play. They won their 20th straight America East regular seaon game and their 15th straight game at home. The 13-game winning streak is the second longest in the nation behind top-ranked Notre Dame, which has won 21 straight. Johnson, a senior from Far Rockaway, NY, became just the third woman in school-history to top the 1,500 career-point mark. She achieved the milestone on a jumper at the 11:06 mark of the first half and now has 1,519 points for her career. She is the 19th player in America East history to top the mark and is currently tied for No. 16 on the conference's career scoring list with former Drexel star Jen MacNeill. Johnson is also third on the UD scoring list. Delaware, which had a school-record seven players in double figures in Friday night's win over Hofstra, took the lead for good three minutes into the game. After Drexel (12-8, 8-4) jumped out to a 5-2 lead, the Blue Hens scored the next nine points and never trailed after that. The Lady Dragons got to within three, 44-41, with 15:32 remaining on a Heather McGinty jumper. However, Delaware went on a 12-4 run after that, with six of the points coming on a pair of three-pointers by Megan Dellegrotti. The junior from Berwick, PA now has 93 career three-pointers, five shy of the school mark held by Linda Cyborski. The five players scoring in double-figures marks the seventh straight game that the Blue Hens have had four or more players in double-digits. Along with Johnson's 22, Delaware got 14 points from Dellegrotti, 14 by Allison Trapp, 10 by Christine Cole, and 14 by Christina Rible, who also had 15 rebounds in recording her sixth straight double-double and 12th of the season. The win, coupled with Vermont's loss at home to Maine, gives Delaware a four-game lead with six conference games remaining. Drexel and Vermont are tied for second at 8-4. Delaware will host Boston University Thursday at 7 p.m. AGATE: OFFICIAL BASKETBALL BOX SCORE -- G A M E T O T A L S
