DOVER, Del. --- The Delaware State women's basketball team returns home to Memorial Hall after a three-game away stand for a Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) competition with Morgan State University.
Â
The Hornets had a successful away stand having won two-of-three after claiming victories over University of Maryland Eastern Shore and South Carolina State. Offensively, Delaware State was led by
Alexis Moragne and
Savannah Brooks who each recorded 11.7 points per game and will look to continue that contribution against top-seeded Morgan State University. As a team, the Hornets averaged 56.7 points per game while shooting .404 from the field.
Â
Defensively, Delaware State will count on senior forward
Jessica Martino to continue on the roll she was on during this past three-game stretch. During that time, Martino hauled in a total of 16 rebounds while coming away with four steals. Â
Â
The Bears make the trip up to Dover as the top team in the conference riding a four-game win streak and will aim to remain undefeated in league action. Morgan State has been led in large part by the two-headed monster of Charlene Shepherd and Ja'Niah Henson during the team's 4-0 start to the conference portion of the schedule. Shepherd has been leading the Bears on both sides of the ball these past four games with an average of 21.5 points per game to go along with 10.3 rebounds per game. Henson has chipped in with 15.8 points per game while accounting for nine of Morgan State's 18 three-pointers. As a team, the Bears have outscored their opponents 270-213 during this streak while shooting .408 from the field.
Â
Saturday afternoon's game is currently scheduled to tipoff from Memorial Hall at 2 p.m. Live coverage links to follow along with the game can be found below. Delaware State's originally scheduled game at Coppin State in Baltimore, Md., on Monday (Jan. 30) has been rescheduled for Mon. Feb. 6. Â
