HOW IT HAPPENED

After most of the first half was back-and-forth, Delaware used an 18-3 run over 6:33 to take a 36-21 heading into the final media stoppage of the half. Over that span, UD held the Tribe to 1-of-8 from the field. With 2.5 seconds on the clock, Reilly launched a deep three off the sideline out of bounds and beat the buzzer to give the Blue & Gold a 43-30 lead into the locker room.
The visitors used a 10-2 advantage over the initial 4:09 of the second stanza to cut the gap to five at 45-40. William & Mary took a one-point lead with 9:32 remaining, but that lead dissipated in less than 90 seconds. A defensive showing from the Hens led to an 18-7 margin the rest of the way.
