Price and Jareal Smith scored 13 points apiece, each making three 3-pointers. Radford was 8 for 27 from the arc, Delaware 2 for 14. The Blue Hens didn't score a basket in the final 5:26.

Devon Saddler led Delaware with 18 points but hit just 5 of 22 shots. Jamelle Higgins had 17 points and nine rebounds for the Blue Hens.
