STORYLINES
    • After completing a three-game homestand, the Blue Hens play two straight games on the road this week at UNCW and Charleston. Tonight's game opens a stretch in which Delaware will play five of six contests outside of Newark.
   • Delaware has lost nine consecutive games, and is looking to avoid the seventh double digit losing streak in school history.
   • The Blue Hens are 0-6 in league play for the first time since dropping their first six East Coast Conference games in 1981-82.
   • Delaware is coming off a 69-60 home defeat to Northeastern on Saturday. The Blue Hens led 41-36 with 12:24 remaining, but the Huskies went on a 13-0 run and led by at least six points the rest of the way.
   • Marvin King-Davis registered his CAA-leading ninth double-double of the season with team-highs of 23 points and 15 rebounds. His nine double-doubles tie him for 14th most in Division I.
   • Cazmon Hayes came off the bench to score 15 points and hit three three-pointers, while Kory Holden contributed 12 points and a game-high six assists.
   • UNCW leads the all-time series with Delaware, 18-11, and the Seahawks have won nine of the 12 meetings in Wilmington. UD had won two straight at Trask Coliseum prior to the Seahawks' 74-73 overtime win last year.
   • UNCW won the first matchup this season, 85-67, on Jan. 9 at the Bob Carpenter Center. Delaware committed a season-high 20 turnovers in that game.
