LAST TIME OUT 🏀
Delaware was never able to get into an offensive rhythm Friday evening as Elon defeated the Blue Hens, 62-45, at Alumni Gym. The Phoenix gradually built their lead through the course of the game, but never led by double figures until late in the third quarter. Elon never let up and kept the foot on the gas while going up by as much as 19 with 4:08 remaining in the contest. Erika Brown, Sadé Chatman and Makeda Nicholas posted eight points apiece for Delaware (14-13, 9-7 CAA). Chatman and Nicholas joined Nicole Enabosi in collecting six rebounds apiece. Courtni Green added seven points, three steals and two assists. Shay Burnett guided Elon (17-10, 10-6 CAA) with 19 points and 10 rebounds while Essence Baucom notched seven points and five assists.
