Tied 26-26 at the half, Delaware shot 56% in the second half (18/32), to outscore the Spartans by nine and earn the conference victory.

"We didn't get it done defensively in the second half," lamented Head Coach Brennan McCarthy, "we gave up 14 offensive rebounds, including 9 to Geiger ... you can't give a team like Delaware that many second opportunities."

Jeremiah Coleman scored 20 points for Northampton, including a 6 for 11 performance from behind the ard, while Michael Samuel added 20 points as well.

The Spartans finished 20 of 61 from the field (33%) and 14 of 24 from the line (58%).
