Delaware took a loss in their last matchup and will be looking to turn the tables on Northeastern, who comes in off a win.

Winning is just a little bit easier when you work as a team to post 12 more assists than your opponent, a fact Northeastern proved on Saturday. They walked away with a 70-62 victory over the Pirates.

Chris Doherty was the offensive standout of the match as he dropped a double-double on 21 points and 12 rebounds. Less helpful for Northeastern was Luka Sakota's abysmal 0-5 three-point shooting.

Christian Ray put forth a good effort for the losing side as he dropped a double-double on 12 points and 12 rebounds. Jalun Trent was another key contributor, scoring nine points along with eight rebounds and three steals.

The Huskies' win bumped their record up to 12-17. As for the Fightin' Blue Hens, they have been struggling recently as they've lost three of their last four games, which put a noticeable dent in their 17-12 record this season.
