February 17, 2001 Miller's Double-Double Leads Balanced Blue Hen Effort
NEWARK, DE -- Senior Greg Miller recorded his first career double-double with 12 points and a career-high 10 rebounds and five Blue Hen players scored in double figures as the University of Delaware posted a 77-63 America East men's basketball victory over Towson University Saturday night at the Bob Carpenter Center. The Blue Hens (16-9, 12-4) won for the fourth time in the last five games and moved into sole possession of second place in America East. Delaware used a balanced effort as Ajmal Basit scored 16 points, Ryan Iversen and Billy Wells each scored 14, Miller added 12, and Austen Rowland recorded 10 points and six assists. Delaware held a 39-31 rebound advantage and hit on 10 of 19 three-pointers with Wells and Iversen each netting three. Towson (10-15, 6-10) lost its fifth straight game despite the play of forward Sam Sutton who scored a game-high 23 points, pulled a team-high eight rebounds, and connected on three three-pointers. Brian Barber added 12 points and five assists for the Tigers. Delaware has defeated Towson 11 straight times and have downed the Tigers at the Bob Carpenter Center eight straight times. The Blue Hens held a slim 34-31 advantage at halftime and led just 41-39 four minutes into the second stanza. But the Hens used a 16-2 spurt over the next four minutes to take a 57-41 lead with 12:11 left to play. Basit scored four points during the run while Iversen, Wells, and freshman Mike Ames each connected on three-pointers. Towson later cut the lead to nine points at 65-56 with 2:59 left to play, but Iversen answered with another three-pointer and Rowland converted on four straight free throws to keep Towson at bay.
