Wells, Rowland, Basit Lead Balanced Effort vs. Cold-Shooting Quakers 


Billy Wells scored a team-high 14 points

NEWARK, DE -- Guards Billy Wells and Austen Rowland and forward Ajmal Basit led a balanced effort as the University of Delaware knocked off cold-shooting Pennsylvania 76-66 in a non-league men's basketball game Wednesday night at the Bob Carpenter Center.

Wells had a team-high 14 points, Rowland chipped in with 12 points, and Basit collected his 13th double-double of the season with 13 points and 11 rebounds as the Blue Hens (10-7) won their fifth straight game. Penn (3-10), the defending Ivy League champions who had won three of its last four games, had four players score in double figures led by forward Adam Chubb with 13 points off the bench.

Penn, which shot just 39.7 percent from the field (25 of 63) and 27.3 percent from the three-point line (6 of 22), also got 11 points from Koko Archibong and 10 each from Ugonna Onyekwe and Duane King.

Delaware, which won its ninth straight non-league game at home, sped away from a 42-32 halftime lead by hitting 9 of its first 12 shots from the field in the second half to build a 61-42 lead with 11:29 left to play. For the game, the Hens connected on 28 of 50 shots from the field (.560), including 13 of 20 (.650) in the second half.

After Penn tied the game at 7-7 three minutes into the game, Delaware responded with a 10-2 run and led the rest of the way. The Quakers cut the lead to 27-24 with 5:23 left in the first half, but Delaware finished on a 15-8 run to take the 10-point lead into intermission.

Penn never recovered from the Blue Hens' quick second half start. Delaware led by at least 10 points the entire second half and went up by as much as 20 points at 64-44 with 10:28 left.
