NEWARK, Del. – University of Delaware freshman guard Kevin Anderson will miss the remainder of the 2017-18 season after undergoing left knee surgery Thursday morning.
Anderson, a native of Williamsport, Pa. (St. John Neumann HS), suffered the injury during practice on Dec. 25. He started 11 games for the Blue Hens this season, averaging 13.7 points and 4.9 rebounds per game while handing out 32 assists. A two-time CAA Rookie of the Week honoree, Anderson reached double figures in eight games, including season-highs of 23 points and seven assists against Notre Dame.
“We are extremely disappointed for Kevin,” Blue Hen head coach Martin Ingelsby said. “He was having a very productive season for us, and was playing like one of the best guards in the CAA. We look forward to having Kevin back for the start of our offseason workouts in the spring.”
