Elena seems to be at the top of her game.

DE's toughest non-conference games (Penn St, Vill, Prin) may be behind it.

If they get by Wake Forecast on the 11th, could be undefeated heading into game at James Madison in late Jan.

They play Maryland at Maryland on Dec 29th.

Danny that is Maryland or Lafayette. Is it a holiday Tournament? Maryland and Lafayette are shown playing on the 28th but the is no Delaware vs Maryland game shown on Maryland's schedule.

It is the Holiday Tournament. I think the way it works is the winners from the 28th play each other on the 29th.

Danny, the mystery further deepens, the Lafayette schedule says they will be playing either East Carolina or Delaware on the 29th. I guess they expect to beat Maryland first. Just teasing, I realize they will play one of those two either way.

Are the hens scheduled to play any top 25 teams, that is if they will play Maryland? I guess we wait til the post season to see them challenged.

Last year, Elena had physical problems (again), so the team struggled when she was out. JMU was too physical and too good for UDel in the conference tourney. This looks like the year for UDel. They could have 28-30 wins by the time the NCAAs begin. If so, they could get an at-large berth and maybe an 8-9 seed, perhaps in Kingston. Elena, meet Kelly Faris, defender extraordinaire.

In addition to the 32 points, EDD had 9 rebounds and 5 blocks. She attempted ony 2 threes, hitting 1. UDel started out on a 14-0 run and gave Princeton their first loss--in Princeton. I think EDD has more support this year.

Sounds pretty grim. TWO 'yarders are forecasting a wake for Delaware.

Sniff! Elena, we hardly knew ye!
