STORYLINES

   • Delaware fell at home to William & Mary, 94-79, on Thursday night at the Bob Carpenter Center. UD connected on a season-high 14 three-pointers, but the Tribe hit 16 triples of its own, tied for the most by a Blue Hen opponent in school history.
   • Kory Holden scored a game-high 29 points, his eighth 20-point effort of the season, and ranks third in the CAA with a 17.6 scoring average.
   • Cazmon Hayes added 21 points and five three-pointers, recording his second highest scoring output of the year.
