Not Done Yet Delaware makes its fourth ever appearance in the NCAA Tournament in 2013 and its second consecutive after winning the Colonial Athletic Association title in back-to-back seasons. The Hens completed their second straight perfect season through the CAA, upping their overall win streak to 42 straight over conference opponents. UD enters the NCAA Tournament with a 30-3 mark and has won a school-record 25 straight games. Additionally, Delaware clinched its second straight 30-win season with a victory over Drexel in the CAA Championship game. Series History - West Virginia Sunday’s matchup in the first round of the NCAA Tournament will be the first ever meeting between Delaware and West Virginia in women’s basketball history. The two teams share three common opponents from this season in UNCW, St. Bonaventure and Duquesne. The Blue Hens defeated UNCW three times this season while the Mountaineers picked up a win over the Seahawks in their season opener. Delaware split the season series with Duquesne while WVU defeated the Dukes. Additionally, both teams defeated St. Bonaventure earlier this season. Series History - North Carolina/Albany The winner of the first round game between Delaware and West Virginia will advance to the secound round and face either the No. 3 seed North Carolina Tar Heels or the No. 14 seed Albany Great Danes. The Blue Hens have never face either opponent in Delaware women’s basketball history. Delaware and UNC also share three common opponents in Duquesne, Georgetown and Maryland. The Tar Heels picked up wins over Duquesne and Georgetown while Delaware split a two-game series with the Dukes, but fell to Georgetown in the Preseason WNIT. The Hens also lost to Maryland while UNC split the season ACC series. UD and Albany played one common opponent this season in Sam Houston State. Delaware picked up a huge win in its season opener against the Bearkats while the Great Danes lost to SHSU in December. NCAA Tournament History The No. 3 seeded Hens picked up the first NCAA Tournament victory in school history last season with a 73-42 win over the University of Arkansas - Little Rock. Delaware followed with a 70-64 loss to the No. 11 seed Kansas Jayhawks in the second round. Prior to last year’s appearance, UD previously played in the NCAA Tournament in 2001 (vs. North Carolina State) and 2007 (vs. Michigan State). The Blue Hens will be playing on their home court for the NCAA Tournament for the first time in school history. Blue Hens Earn CAA Honors For the second consecutive year and the third time in four years, senior Elena Delle Donne was named the CAA Player of the Year. Additionally, Delle Donne grabbed spots on the AllDefensive Team and All-Academic First Team. Delle Donne earns the third CAA Player of the Year honor of her career, joining Old Dominion’s Lucienne Berthieu and Celeste Hill as the only other players to receive the conference’s top award three times in their careers. Classmate Lauren Carra was picked as an All-CAA Second Team selection for the first time in her career after receiving Third Team honors. Senior Chelsea Craig and sophomore Stephanie Leon took home All-Academic Honorable Mention accolades. The award was the fourth for Craig while Leon picked up her second career honor. Blue Hens Earn CAA Tournament Honors All-American Elena Delle Donne, who scored 21 points each in the Hens’ quarterfinal and semifinal wins, captured her second straight CAA Tournament Most Valuable Player Award as she scored 28 points and pulled five rebounds to lead the Blue Hens against Drexel. Trumae Lucas was just as important as she came off the bench to add 30 points and eight assists to earn a spot on the All-Tournament team.

We Are The Champions The second time is even sweeter as Delaware got what it came for in the CAA Tournament when the Blue Hens defeated Drexel for the second straight season to earn the CAA Championship. The title is the sixth overall in school history for the Hens, who won East Coast Conference titles in 1989, 1990 and 1991 and the America East crown in 2001. The Blue Hens, who had dropped previous CAA Tournament title games in 2003, 2005 and 2011, got the job done for the second time on March 17. Delaware also defeated Drexel to win the East Coast Conference Tournament title in 1990 when both were members of the now defunct league. CAA Finals Recap: Delaware 59, Drexel 56 It wasn’t an easy victory by any stretch, but the No. 15 University of Delaware women’s basketball squad claimed their second straight Colonial Athletic Association Tournament title with a hardfought 59-56 victory over Drexel at The Show Place Arena. All-American Elena Delle Donne scored 28 points and pulled five rebounds to lead the Blue Hens. Trumae Lucas was just as important as she came off the bench to add 12 points and earn her spot on the All-Tournament team. Lauren Carra pulled down a team-high 10 points and dished out six assists while Kayla Miller handed out five assists herself. Just as it had done two weeks ago in a 62-57 win over Drexel, Delaware had to work extra hard for the victory as the Blue Hens needed two free throws each from Delle Donne and Lucas in the final 44 seconds to clinch the win. The Hens managed just one field goal over the final seven minutes of action as Drexel (22-10) rallied back from a 17-point second half deficit by using a 24-7 run to take the lead at 56-55 with 1:07 left. But Lucas hit her two free throws with 44 seconds left to give the Hens the lead for good and Delle Donne knocked down the deciding shots with just nine seconds left. Drexel failed to scorein its final two possessions as Abby Redick was called for traveling with 19 seconds left and Hollie Mershon turned the ball over in the final seconds, setting off a wild celebration on the court that included many of the partisan Blue Hen crowd. Drexel, which fell to Delaware in the title game for the second straight year, got 21 points from Taylor Wootton, including 12 points from three-point range, and 18 from Mershon in the loss. Mershon also dished out nine assists and drained three pointers. The Dragons, who fell to Delaware for the seventh straight time, knocked down 10 three-pointers in 25 attempts during the game, including seven in the second half as part of their comeback. UD Third in NCAA With Winning Streak Delaware’s current 25-game overall winning streak is good for third in the NCAA. Through games on March 17, Baylor has won 30 straight contests while Notre Dame has picked up 26 straight victories. Neither team plays again until the NCAA Tournament. Hens Second Nationally in Conference Winning Streaks Delaware has won 37 consecutive regular season CAA contests, which is good for to tie second in the NCAA. Defending national champion Baylor currently has won 39 straight Big 12 games while Florida Gulf Coast has won 36 consecutive Atlantic Sun matchups (as of March 7). Delaware’s School Record Winning Streak The Blue Hens have won 25 straight games dating back to Dec. 20 when they lost, 53-69, to then ninth-ranked Maryland. Last season, Delaware won a school-record 21 straight games from Jan. 5 to March 18, when they lost in the NCAA Tournament to Kansas. Previously, the longest winning streak in school history was 17 games, set during the 2000-01 and 2004-05 seasons.

Dating to the 2010-11 season Delaware has won 37 straight CAA regular season games, breaking a school-record 24-game streak in the America East Conference from Feb. 3, 2000 to Feb. 24, 2001. The Blue Hens went a perfect 18-0 in the CAA regular season during the 2011-12 campaign, becoming the first conference team to go undefeated in league play since Old Dominion went 18-0 in 2001-02.

The Blue Hens finished 3-2 against 2012 NCAA Tournament teams during the 2012-13 regular season after losses to Georgetown and Maryland and victories over St. Bonaventure, Princeton and St. John’s. UD Loses Back-To-Back For First Time Since 2010 Delaware’s 47-51 loss at Duquesne marked the first time the Blue Hens have tallied back-to-back regular season losses since 2010 when Delaware suffered three straight losses to Penn State, Saint Joseph’s, and Vanderbilt from Dec. 19-29. UD Has Record-Breaking 2011-12 Campaign Delaware won a school-record 31 games during last season, including a record 21 straight from Jan. 5 through March 18.

Since the start of the 1999-2000 season the Blue Hens have posted 11 20-win seasons (UD won 19 games in 2003-04), and have competed in postseason play nine times. Delaware competed in the NCAA Tournament in 2001, 2007 and 2012, winning the first NCAA game in men’s or women’s history over Arkansas Little Rock last spring. The Blue Hens earned Postseason WNIT berths in 2002, 2003, 2005, 2006, 2010, and 2011. UD won the America East Tournament Championship in 2001 and the CAA Tournament title in 2012.

Delaware has gone 335-132 during the last 14 years, a .717 winning percentage.

The most rebounds the Hens have ever tallied in a single game came against Rider on January 27, 1990 as Delaware recorded 63 boards.

Additionally, the Hens have held eight opponents to 45 or less points in a game.

2013 Blue Hen Women’s Basketball Postseason Guide • NCAA Tournament • Back-to-Back CAA Champions


TINA Head Coach • Lock Haven ‘86 17 Season at Delaware • 339-180 th

One of the most successful coaches in University of Delaware athletics history, Tina Martin begins her 17th season at the helm of the Blue Hen women’s basketball team in 2012-13. A native of Williamsport, Pa., Martin was hired May 14, 1996, replacing Joyce Perry who served for 18 years. She has signed through 2017 with the University of Delaware. In 16 seasons, Martin has transformed the Blue Hens into perennial championship contenders, first in the America East conference, and currently in the Colonial Athletic Association, which Delaware joined beginning with the 2001-02 season. In those 16 seasons, she has led the teams to a combined record of 309-177 (.636) overall and 186-102 (.646) in regular season league play with the Hens posting nine straight winning seasons through the 2006-07 season. Delaware has recorded 20-win seasons in 10 of the last 13 seasons and made postseason appearances in nine of the last 12 years, including three in the NCAA and six in the Women’s National Invitation Tournament. Last season Martin guided UD to a record-breaking year that saw the Blue Hens finish 31-2, go undefeated in CAA play, and win the first postseason game in school history. Delaware set a school record for wins in a season including a record 21 consecutive victories, and claimed the first CAA Tournament title in UD history. The Blue Hens earned a No. 3 seed in the NCAA Tournament and posted a 73-42 win over Arkansas Little Rock, the first postseason win by a men’s or women’s basketball team in school history, and ended the year ranked No. 14 in the ESPN/USA Today Coaches Poll after climbing as high as No. 7 in early March. Along the way, Martin earned her 300th career victory on Feb. 12 when the Blue Hens defeated Georgia State, 94-56, the most points scored by UD under Martin. For her efforts, she was named the CAA Coach of the Year for the third time. Martin also was instrumental in the continuing development of Elena Delle Donne, a first team WBCA, John Wooden, Associated Press and USWBA All-American who led the nation in scoring by averaging 28.1 points per game. On Jan. 6, 2011, Martin became the winningest men’s or women’s basketball coach at Delaware, earning her 267th career victory with a

61-51 win at Northeastern. The Hens have placed fourth or better in league play all but four times. Delaware has advanced to the league championship semifinals or better 11 times in the last 13 years, including four appearances in the CAA Championship Game. After a 6-21 campaign in 1997-98, Martin led the Blue Hens to a 16-11 record in 1998-99 and a 21-8 mark and a trip to the America East semifinals in 1999-2000. The team’s 21-8 mark in 1999-00 was the best season for a Blue Hen team since 1989-90. But it all came together during the 2000-01 season for the Blue Hens. Martin leaded an experienced Delaware squad to the finest season in school history. Delaware put together a record of 26-5, setting school records for wins in a season and consecutive victories (17) and cruising to the America East regular season title with a 17-1 record. The Hens moved through the America East Tournament, defeating Boston University and Hartford in the first two rounds and rallying to down host Vermont in the championship game. That victory gave Delaware its first ever America East title and the team’s first conference championship since 1991 and its first program NCAA Tournament appearance. The Blue Hens advanced to the NCAA East Regionals at North Carolina State and hung tough with the 19th ranked Wolfpack before falling 76-57. The Hens also received their first ever votes in the USA Today Top 25 poll during the season. Among the other milestones during the season included Martin winning the America East Coach of the Year award for the first time and senior guard Cindy Johnson earning All-America East honors for the third straight year. Martin was instrumental in the development of Johnson, a 5-8 guard who became Delaware’s all-time leading scorer and was the first UD player to be invited to the Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA) Draft Camp in 2002. Delaware made it two straight post-season appearances in 200102. As first year members of the Colonial Athletic Association, Martin helped guide the Blue Hens to a 23-7 record and their first ever Women’s National Invitational Tournament berth. The 2004-05 team produced one of the finest seasons in school history as Martin led the squad to a 25-6 mark and a 16-2 league mark. The Blue Hens claimed the CAA regular season title and tied the

school record for consecutive wins in a season with 17. The Blue Hens ended Old Dominion’s 122-game home CAA win streak with their victory in Norfolk in January and then became the first CAA team since the 1992-93 Richmond Spiders to sweep Old Dominion in the regular season before a school record crowd at home. The squad received votes in the USA Today Top 25 Poll over the second half of the season. The Hens moved through the CAA Tournament before falling to Old Dominion in the CAA Championship game in overtime, 78-74. The Hens did make it back to the post-season though, as Delaware hosted St. John’s in the first round of the WNIT Tournament. Delaware making its third WNIT appearance in the last four years fell to the Red Storm by a score of 48-42. Martin was selected as the CAA Co-Coach of the Year honors, sharing the title with Drexel’s Denise Dillion. The winning ways continued in 2005-06 as the Blue Hens posted a record of 22-8, placed third in the CAA regular season standings, and advanced to the CAA Tournament semifinals. Delaware still earned its fifth post-season berth in six seasons, advancing to the WNIT for the fourth time before falling to Pittsburgh by a score of 64-57. During the 2006-07 season, Delaware tied the school record with 26 wins and tied the school record for conference wins with 16. The Blue Hens also received votes in the Associated Press Top 25 media poll for the first time in school history. The Hens garnered the school’s first ever at-large bid into the NCAA Tournament. UD fell to Michigan State on the Spartans’ home floor 69-58. Smith, who led the team in scoring and was 17th in the nation with 19.8 points per game, was named first team All-CAA and the league’s Defensive Player of the Year for the second straight year. Smith became the first Delaware player to be drafted into the WNBA when the Phoenix Mercury selected her with the 18th overall pick. In 2009-10, the Blue Hens returned to dominance with a solid 21-12 season highlighted by CAA semifinal and a first round WNIT appearances. After an outstanding season in 2009-10, the Hens went through an up-and-down season. Delaware rebounded however and advanced to the CAA Tournament finals. The Hens earned yet another WNIT appearance with a first round game at Toledo. As an assistant coach, Martin played a big part in rebuilding a Seton Hall University program that went from three straight losing seasons to one that made back-to-back NCAA Tournament appearances in 1994 and 1995 under head coach Phyllis Mangina. The 1993-94 team went 27-5 and advanced to the NCAA Sweet 16, the best season in Seton Hall history. Martin was a two-time NCAA Division II All-American at Lock Haven (Pa.) University and was a four time Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference All-Star and two time league Player of the Year. She finished as the PSAC’s all-time leading scorer with 2,157 points and had her number (33) retired at Lock Haven.

Her tenure is longer than any other current assistant coach among UD women’s athletics teams, and ties her for 17th amongst active NCAA Division I assistant/associate women’s basketball coaches at one institution.

Tom Lochner, who previously spent 23 seasons as La Salle University in Philadelphia, including six years as head coach, was named an assistant coach for the Blue Hen women’s basketball staff in July, 2011. He begins his second season with Delaware during the 2012-13 season.

Radice, who was promoted to associate head coach in April, 2000, has played a key role in Delaware’s rise to the top of the America East conference and now to the upper echelon of the Colonial Athletic Association. During her 16 seasons as Martin’s top assistant, she has led the Blue Hens to 309 wins, a .636 winning percentage, three NCAA Tournament berths, six Women’s National Invitation Tournament appearances, and three conference titles. The Blue Hens have advanced to their league tournament semifinals 11 times during her 16 years.

During his first season at UD in 2011-12, Lochner helped guide UD to a record-breaking year that saw the Blue Hens finish 31-2, go undefeated in CAA play, and win the first postseason game in school history.

Last season Radice helped guide UD to a record-breaking year that saw the Blue Hens finish 31-2, go undefeated in CAA play, and win the first postseason game in school history. Delaware set a school record for wins in a season including a record 21 consecutive victories, and claimed the first CAA Tournament title in UD history. The Blue Hens earned a No. 3 seed in the NCAA Tournament and posted a 73-42 win over Arkansas Little Rock, the first postseason win by a men’s or women’s basketball team in school history, and ended the year ranked No. 14 in the ESPN/USA Today Coaches Poll after climbing as high as No. 7 in early March.

Radice also was instrumental in the continuing development of Elena Delle Donne, a first team WBCA, John Wooden, Associated Press and USWBA All-American who led the nation in scoring by averaging 28.1 points per game. Radice helped the Blue Hens turnaround from a 6-21 mark in 1997-98 to a 21-8 record and a trip to the America East semifinals in 1999-2000. It all came together during the 2000-01 season for the Blue Hens as Delaware enjoyed its finest season in school history. Delaware put together a record of 26-5, setting school records for wins in a season and consecutive victories (17) and cruising to the America East regular season title with a 17-1 record. The Hens moved through the America East Tournament, defeating Boston University and Hartford in the first two rounds and rallying to down host Vermont in the championship game. That victory gave Delaware its first ever America East title and the team’s first conference championship since 1991 and its first ever NCAA Tournament appearance. The Blue Hens advanced to the NCAA East Regionals at North Carolina State and hung tough with the 19th ranked Wolfpack before falling 76-57. The Hens also received their first ever votes in the USA Today Top 25 poll during the season. Delaware made it two straight post-season appearances in 2001-02. As first year members of the Colonial Athletic Association, Radice helped guide the Blue Hens to a 23-7 record, the second highest season win total in school history. Delaware placed second in the CAA regular season standings behind nationally-ranked Old Dominion with a 15-3 mark and advanced to the CAA Tournament semifinals. Delaware earned its first ever WNIT berth before falling to Atlantic 10 regular season champion George Washington in the opening round, 78-71. The remarkable string continued in 2002-03 as Radice helped lead an unheralded team to a 22-9 record and a 15-3 league mark, tying Old Dominion for the regular season title. It marked the first time since 1992-93 that the Lady Monarchs did not win the league regular season title outright. The Hens moved through the CAA Tournament before falling to host Old Dominion 66-58 in the championship game. Still, the Hens qualified for the WNIT Tournament for the second straight year, falling to host Saint Joseph’s 65-47 in the opening round. The 2004-05 team produced one of the finest seasons in school history as Radice helped lead the squad to a 25-6 mark and a 16-2 league mark. The Blue Hens claimed the CAA regular season title and tied the school record for consecutive wins in a season with 17. The Blue Hens ended Old Dominion’s 122-game home CAA win streak with their victory in Norfolk in January and then became the first CAA team since the 1992-93 Richmond Spiders to sweep Old Dominion in the regular season before a school record crowd at home. The squad received votes in the USA Today Top 25 Poll over the second half of the season. The Hens moved through the CAA Tournament before falling to Old Dominion in the CAA Championship game in overtime, 78-74. The Hens did make it back to the post-season though as Delaware hosted St. John’s in the first round of the WNIT. Delaware, making its third WNIT appearance in the last four years, fell to the Red Storm by a score of 48-42. The winning ways continued in 2005-06 as the Blue Hens posted a record of 22-8, placed third in the CAA regular season standings, and advanced to the CAA Tournament semifinals before falling to James Madison in the final seconds. Delaware still earned its fifth post-season berth in six seasons, advancing to the WNIT but falling to Pittsburgh by a score of 64-57 in the opening round.

Lochner also was instrumental in the continuing development of Elena Delle Donne, a first team WBCA, John Wooden, Associated Press and USWBA All-American who led the nation in scoring by averaging 28.1 points per game. “We are thrilled to have Tom joining our staff,” said Delaware head coach Tina Martin at the time of Lochner’s hiring. “He brings a wealth of knowledge, experience, and recruiting ties that will really help our program. I have known Tom for over 20 years and have a tremendous amount respect for him as a person and as a coach.“ “I’m very excited to be a part of the University of Delaware women’s basketball coaching staff,” said Lochner. “I have an extremely high level of respect for what this program has been able to accomplish under Coach Martin and her staff. I hope to be able to contribute in some way to the future success of the program.” Lochner holds two degrees from Temple University, a bachelor’s degree in physical education in 1989 and a master’s in sports management in 1997. He also earned a master’s degree in education from La Salle in 2006. He served on the basketball staff for 23 seasons at La Salle, including the final six as head coach as he put together a record of 72-101. He was first hired as a volunteer assistant for the 1987-88 season under John Miller before being promoted to assistant head coach in 1989 and then associate head coach in 1998. He became the head coach in August, 2004, replacing Miller who resigned. Lochner enjoyed his finest season as head coach at LaSalle in 2006-07 when he led the Explorers to 19 wins, the most by the school in over a decade, and earned Big Five Coach of the Year honors. The team started out 7-0 to tie a school record, won nine games on the road for the first time since 1991-92, and matched the school’s best ever home mark at Tom Gola Arena with a record of 10-3.

During the 2006-07 season, Delaware tied the school record with 26 wins and tied the school record for conference wins with 16. The Blue Hens also received votes in the Associated Press Top 25 media poll for the first time in school history. The Hens fell in the CAA semifinals to James Madison but garnered the school’s first ever at-large bid into the NCAA Tournament.

The journey for Lochner at La Salle began when he joined the Explorers coaching staff in 1987 serving as a volunteer assistant for two seasons. After gaining full-time coaching status in 1989, he remained as an assistant coach until the 1998-99 season, when he was promoted to associate head coach.

The Hens fell to Michigan State on the Spartans’ home floor 69-58. Smith, who led the team in scoring and was 17th in the nation with 19.8 points per game, was named first team All-CAA and the league’s Defensive Player of the Year for the second straight year. Smith became the first Delaware player to be drafted into the WNBA when the Phoenix Mercury selected her with the 18th overall pick. Having graduated three key members of the NCAA Tournament team, the Blue Hens suffered a 7-24 season in 2007-08 before bouncing back and securing a .500 record in 2008-09 of 15-15.

During his 17 years at La Salle prior to his head coaching stint, Lochner had been part of 296 La Salle victories (296-196 overall). He had also been with the team for two NCAA Tournament appearances, one WNIT Tournament appearance, three conference titles, four Big 5 titles, and five 20-win seasons.

In 2009-10 the Blue Hens returned to dominance with a solid 21-12 season highlighted by CAA semifinal and a first round WNIT appearances. Delaware, who smashed its previous attendance record having seated over 16,000 more than ever before, defeated George Mason in the CAA first round before edging past Drexel, 67-61 in overtime of the quarterfinals. Delaware went on to challenge Old Dominion in the semifinal contest, but fell short of a berth to the championship game as the Hens fell, 50-49, its seventh loss by five points or less that season. UD ended its season having dropped a 67-49 decision to visiting Richmond in the WNIT opening round.

Lochner started his coaching career in his hometown of Schenectady, N.Y. at his alma mater, Bishop Gibbons High School. He coached the girls basketball team from 1980-87, with his first three seasons guiding the junior varsity squad and the last four as the varsity head coach.

Radice who earned her bachelor’s degree (1989) and master’s degrees (1990) from Fordham, served as an assistant with Martin at Seton Hall for four years, leading the team to the NCAA Tournament in 1994 and 1995. She previously served as an assistant coach at Marist College.

During his varsity tenure, Bishop Gibbons posted an 88-13 record and captured the 1986 New York State Championships (Large Division) with a 26-2 record. His team also won three sectional titles, and Lochner was honored as New York State Section II Coach of the Year twice - in 1985 and 1986.

Radice coordinates Delaware’s recruiting efforts and oversees Delaware’s girl’s basketball summer camp. She worked primarily with the Blue Hen backcourt players. She was instrumental in the development of two-time first team All-America East guard and the school’s all-time leading scorer, Cindy Johnson. At Fordham, Radice was the Metro Atlantic Athletic Association Most Valuable Player in 1989, was named Fordham’s Outstanding Female Athlete three times, was inducted into the Fordham Hall of Fame in 1995. She was also a standout on the Fordham cross country team. A native of New York, Radice had a brilliant playing career at Fordham where she is second on the all-time leading scoring list with 2,417 career points and ranks second all-time in field goals made with 929. She holds the Fordham career records for scoring average (21.8), 3-point field goal percentage (.475), and free throw percentage (.851). A three-time first team selection to the All-Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference team, Radice was chosen the MAAC Rookie of the Year in 1985 and the Player of the Year in 1989.

In addition to coaching at the high school and college levels, Lochner has extensive summer camp experience, teaching basketball fundamentals to young athletes. He is also actively involved in alumni and booster fundraising activities. Lochner, wife Beth, son Curtis, and daughter Samantha, reside in Willow Grove, Pa.

2013 Blue Hen Women’s Basketball Postseason Guide • NCAA Tournament • Back-to-Back CAA Champions


ESPN.com: Women's College Basketball Monday, March 4, 2013 Elena shines in and out of spotlight By Graham Hays espnW On Wednesday -- or as she has just about any other night this season -- Elena Delle Donne put on a show. Most of the country didn't experience Elena Delle Donne's final regular-season home game. There wasn't a national television audience for the Colonial Athletic Association game between Delaware and Georgia State as there was when Skylar Diggins and Notre Dame played Connecticut on Monday night. What transpired wasn't likely to become part of any national conversation, as it did when Baylor's Brittney Griner went for 50 points in her regular-season home finale the same night as the triple-overtime thriller in South Bend. Basketball operates on a smaller scale in the second-smallest state. To watch the third member of this season's triumvirate of senior superstars score 24 points in an 86-58 win, you either had to be among the fans in the sold-out Bob Carpenter Center or watch the stream on the University of Delaware site, well done by the standards of these things (and free) but with a solitary and somewhat distant camera and score graphics that looked right out of a 1970s NBA broadcast. Elizabeth "Lizzie" Delle Donne experienced the evening, though, with her arms outstretched to maintain contact with her mother's shoulders as the two of them and Elena's father and brother accompanied the family's youngest child onto the court during the ceremonies honoring Delaware's seven seniors before the game. That was the trade Elena was willing to make nearly five years ago for a sister who cannot see or hear and knows only touch and smell, perhaps the one trade she had to make to end up on the court at all Wednesday night. There is also a side of Delle Donne that makes her every bit as charming a character as [Brittney] Griner, with her confetti angels, or [Skylar] Diggins, with her star persona. Delle Donne doesn't let it slip often in interviews, perhaps because she always waits for the inevitable questions about Connecticut or to explain what is difficult to explain to strangers when it comes to Lizzie. But there is a genuine college-kid goofiness to her, too. Her peace of mind for a piece of the spotlight. To step around the fourth wall for a minute, there are times when I feel like I write too much about Delle Donne (and plenty of times when others suggest as much, playfully and otherwise). But then there are also times I run into people around the country, some casual fans of women's basketball and others who are passionate about the sport who haven't seen her play or caught just a few minutes of Delaware during last season's NCAA tournament. In this age of total sports saturation, for all its flaws and benefits, it's strange to think there is a player doing the things she's doing whom most people know mostly through words -- whether written on a page or spoken in an OTL feature. We're not so many years removed from a time when the same would have been true of Diggins and Griner. Thankfully, we no longer have to wait until March and April, if even then, to see them and their major conference ilk. Still, it's frustrating that more people don't get to see Delle Donne -- not just for her sake, as nobody is shortchanging her on awards or accolades. But for us. She really is that fun to watch when she has the ball in her hands. Take everything you've read about Delle Donne's personal story off the table. Forget about that scene described above, the sight of her giving Lizzie a quick squeeze, a touch that conveyed something completely different than every other hug exchanged by the dozens of people on the court before Wednesday's game. Put all of that aside and Delle Donne is still one of the best stories in college basketball. Her offensive game alone is something to marvel at. She missed her first two shots Wednesday, then scored seven points in the span of two minutes as only she can. The first basket came after she posted up, back to the basket, on one of the blocks. Entry pass received, she leaned back to feel the defender's position, spun and hit a short fadeaway jumper from the baseline, a shot that at her size,


even Griner would have difficulty stopping. On the next trip down the court, Delle Donne stopped outside the 3-point line, waited for a kick out pass from Lauren Carra and hit a 3-pointer in rhythm. One more time down the court and Delle Donne found herself handling the ball at the top of the key. She drove to her right, passed to Kayla Miller on the wing and got the ball back in time to stop and hit a pull-up midrange jumper. Elena Delle Donne and Delaware are 27-3 and riding a school-record 22-game winning streak. Posting up, spotting up or off the dribble, she is as complete an offensive player as the college game has seen. She led Georgia State 17-16 late in the first half. Yes, it's Georgia State. But she scored 24 points in just 17 minutes. "For our game, she's changing it," St. Bonaventure coach Jim Crowley said last season. "I just think the way she can do so many things, and it appears so effortless -- obviously, she's put an incredible amount of time into her game and getting better, but she elevates over people, she moves without the ball, she does all that stuff within a 6-foot-5 really athletic skill set. "I think that's the progression. It's not a kid doing all those things who is 5-foot-8. It's a kid doing all those things at 6-foot-5." There is also a side of Delle Donne that makes her every bit as charming a character as Griner, with her confetti angels, or Diggins, with her star persona. Delle Donne doesn't let it slip often in interviews, perhaps because she always waits for the inevitable questions about Connecticut or to explain what is difficult to explain to strangers when it comes to Lizzie. But there is a genuine college-kid goofiness to her, too, whether dressing up as a 6-foot-5 Gumby for Halloween (and sneaking into a friend's room in costume in the middle of the night to scare the daylights out of her) or doing whatever the heck it is she and Meghan McLean do at about the 3:50 mark of this video. "She's not a quiet kid; she is silly," former teammate Vanessa Kabongo said. "She's definitely a silly person off the floor; I can say that." We don't see that side of her very much because we don't see her very much. And as good a story as she has to tell, the way she plays the game is a story of its own. A good story. People in Delaware know. It's why a place that used to draw hundreds has been sold out for much of the past month. They know there are only so many more chances to see something they aren't likely to see again for a long time.


ESPN.com: Women's College Basketball Wednesday, December 19, 2012 Updated: December 21, 2:10 PM ET Fans get familiar glimpse of star By Graham Hays espnW NEWARK, Del. -- The mind was willing for a game that felt a little like it could have been played in March. The body looked decidedly less convinced. And then it happened. For a few moments in the second half of Thursday's game between Delaware and No. 9 Maryland, a record crowd roaring its approval inside the Bob Carpenter Center, the mind seemed to take control and pull the body along with it. Elena Delle Donne was on the court from the outset, just her second appearance of the season as she deals with a recurrence of Lyme disease. But for those few moments in the second half, the best pure scorer in women's college basketball looked like she was back. It passed almost as quickly as it arrived. Maryland lived up to its billing as the best rebounding team in the nation. The Terrapins bodied the challengers out of the way in a 69-53 win, their fourth in a row by double digits since losing at Connecticut. Tianna Hawkins looked like the All-American, piling up 16 points and 16 rebounds in the win. Delle Donne's final numbers, hitting just 7 of 23 attempts from the floor in 34 minutes, looked like someone who hadn't played in a month because of an illness that takes a physical toll far greater even than the defenders checking her in the post. But those few minutes were enough to make it believable that this could still be the season Delaware envisioned. "I was able to get into a little bit more of a rhythm," Delle Donne said of the second half. "And then, I think, once I got the rhythm, that's when I hit the wall, because obviously I haven't been practicing very long." “Just being on the court gives me a lot of hope. It's been the one thing that's keeping me going, and trying to keep my mindset right, stay happy about everything. So being out there was incredible for me.� -- Elena Delle Donne Before the season, when she was still optimistic about playing through the effects of Lyme disease, Delle Donne said it would be a struggle for her to maintain her playing weight. She looked lean Thursday, even a little haggard, as she moved slowly through warm-ups and then up and down the court at a measured pace. She never lets herself rev too close to the red line, even in the best of times, and yet this looked like someone willing her body to work. She posted up Maryland's 6-foot-4 post, Alicia DeVaughn, on her team's first possession, felt the defender playing her to her right ever so slightly and faded the other way toward the baseline, the kind of post moves she long ago mastered. The shot came up well short. A minute later she had DeVaughn outside the defender's comfort zone on the wing, used a quick shot fake and stepped away for an open jumper. It faded off line and clanked off the rim. So it went in the first half. She played 15 minutes and took 12 shots but hit just three of them. "Elena gave us the effort that she is capable of giving right now," Delaware coach Tina Martin said. "Hopefully, she will continue to get in shape. Hopefully, she will continue to be into the offense. She got into a little bit of rhythm in the second half. But when you're off a month -- I would say to anybody here, don't do anything for a month and then come out and try to play a basketball game. It's not easy." It was Delle Donne's teammates, the ones forced to survive without her for much of the season against a challenging schedule, who kept the Blue Hens in the game for the first half, a seven-point halftime deficit about as far out of hand as the proceedings got in the first 20 minutes. Hawkins changed that, scoring the final four points of the first half and the first eight of the second half -- her first three field goals after halftime on offensive rebounds. As Martin noted repeatedly after the game, Maryland's size is what differentiates it and other top-10 teams from Delaware. With or without Delle Donne, her team can't match that. What few, if any, of those teams can match a 6-foot-5 player with a post game, unlimited range and a guard's handle. With Maryland leading 50-37 midway through the second half and threatening to pull away, Delle Donne took a short


pass from Kayla Miller as the point guard beat a trap. In one motion, Delle Donne turned and launched a 3-pointer to cut the deficit to 10 points. When she missed a jumper on the next possession, an audible collective sigh escaped the crowd. But minutes later, she snookered a defender on a shot fake, stepped to her left and drained a long jumper to cut Maryland's lead to eight points. Little more than a minute later, with the shot clock winding down, she caught a pass in the corner and drained another 3-pointer to cut the lead to three points at 52-49. "She goes into those grooves; that separates her on the floor," Frese said. "That's what makes her so special. And when she started really heating up, we really couldn't find her in the zone, couldn't find her in man. But I thought we did a much better job eventually of trying to lock into her. "But she continues to show what makes her an All-American and why she's a tremendous player." The question that remains, that couldn't be answered Thursday night, is whether this was a step in the right direction or a step too far. Delle Donne said after the game she would have played even if the opponent hadn't been Maryland, the signature game on the schedule. Maybe that's true, and maybe she would have played 34 minutes in a game against a lesser opponent. But it's difficult to envision a scenario in which the competitor in Delle Donne would have sat silently, yielding to discretion as she watched from the sideline in front of a crowd of more than 5,000. If she plays against Monmouth on Saturday, and again in a holiday tournament at Dartmouth later this month, then we will know more what this game meant -- and so will she. "It's definitely been back and forth," Delle Donne said. "After the last game, the Providence game [Nov. 20], I expected to continue to play, and then my body didn't respond. It's been a back-and-forth thing, but hopefully now it'll be [all positive] and I'll be able to keep responding and keep playing." Delle Donne received the loudest ovation from the crowd when she was introduced as a starter. But that noise was given to her. It seemed almost supportive, as if the fans could push her closer to feeling 100 percent. When she squared up in the corner and hit the 3-pointer that cut the lead to three points with eight minutes to play, that sound was different. She drew that noise out of them, the sound spilling out spontaneously and deliriously. "Just being on the court gives me a lot of hope," Delle Donne said. "It's been the one thing that's keeping me going, and trying to keep my mindset right, stay happy about everything. So being out there was incredible for me." As college basketball fans, here's wishing this Christmas that it lasts.


ESPN.com: Women's College Basketball Sunday, February 3, 2013 Delle Donne is espnW player of week By Charlie Creme espnW Editor's note: Charlie Creme, Graham Hays, Michelle Smith and Mechelle Voepel each vote to determine espnW's national player of the week, which is awarded every Monday of the women's college basketball season. It's extremely difficult for a preseason All-American with Elena Delle Donne's backstory to slip into relative obscurity, but it happened. The recurring symptoms of Lyme disease that robbed her of six games early in the season, plus the natural result of playing in Newark, Del., and the Collegiate Athletic Association, knocked Delle Donne off the front page (or whatever passes as the front page these days). Well, she's back. Proof that Delle Donne has returned to form came this week, when she averaged 28.7 points in three games over six days. And the once-again dominant 6-foot-5 senior is espnW's national player of the week. And if there was any question whether stamina would be an issue going forward, the week's best performance came during the third game of the stretch. In Sunday's 79-63 trouncing of Hofstra, Delle Donne scored 35 points on 10-of20 shooting and grabbed nine rebounds. Twenty-one of those points came in the first half, including a halftime buzzer-beating 3-pointer that helped send Delaware to its 13th straight win. Even more telling: Delle Donne played 36 minutes against the Pride. Her 26-point effort against Northeastern and 25-point performance at Georgia State were so good that she didn't have to play much in the second half of two easy victories. Thanks to Delle Donne's efforts -- she has averaged more than 25 points per game since her complete return -- the Hens are 9-0 in the Colonial and moved back into the Top 25 last week. In fact, Delaware has won 28 straight regular-season conference games. Delle Donne hasn't broken any records like Brittney Griner or led her team to arguably the season's biggest win as Skylar Diggins did on national television in the upset at Connecticut. But her recovery has given renewed hope to Delaware's season and put her back on the same page as the two other prominent players with whom she is most often associated. Not that the Hens were a train wreck without her, going 5-2 as she slowly got her strength and energy back. But now their expectations can go beyond just making the NCAA tournament. A Delaware with Delle Donne is a threat to win a game (or more) like they did in March. Delaware has returned to the national conversation, and so has Delle Donne.


ESPN.com: NCW Experts Friday, December 7, 2012 Martin must rally Delaware By Carolyn Peck During the 2011-12 season, Delaware's Elena Delle Donne led the nation in scoring and took her team to the third round of the NCAA tournament. Now she is sidelined, again, with a recurrence of the symptoms of Lyme disease. Delle Donne missed 12 games as a sophomore. During one game she grabbed a rebound, dribbled over to Delaware coach Tina Martin and said, "I'm gonna pass out if you don't take me out." Martin knew people in the stands were wondering why she wasn't putting her All-American back in the game. Martin likely went into this season feeling pretty optimistic. The Blue Hens finished 31-2 last season and all five of their starters returned. Delaware was picked to win the Colonial Athletic Association conference. It will face ranked teams to help with seeding for the NCAA tournament. Martin set the strategic plan of attack in motion. She has a counter for every type of junk defense the Blue Hens could possibly face. Ready, set, go! But wait! Imagine, as the head coach in charge of this well-laid plan, you get a phone call in August, "Coach, I don't feel well." The person on the other end of the line is Elena Delle Donne. As a coach, your No. 1 concern is your player's health. Delle Donne is like a daughter, as are all your players. After experiencing firsthand what Delle Donne went through two years ago, Martin's heart must ache for her. As a coach, you pray it's the flu and not reoccurring symptoms of Lyme disease. "Not again!" is what I would be thinking. So did Martin, temporarily, I'm sure. Martin also has to think about the rest of her "daughters" on her team, the rest of her basketball family. They have plans for this season too, especially the five other seniors. After winning two games in the NCAA tournament and advancing to the Sweet 16, the carrot has been dangled and they want more. They have practiced for multiple scenarios, when other teams have tried to take Delle Donne away with defense like the box-and-1 and triangle-and-2. But they never would have predicted having to prepare for not having her in the lineup. Solution? Being from the south I would say, "Wollar in it," or move forward. Martin has chosen to move forward. She is realistic and knows you aren't going to get 28 points and 10 rebounds from any one player to replace your superstar. She has challenged each player to do just a little bit more. Lauren Carra is leading the team in scoring, Danielle Parker is averaging a double-double and Jaquetta May, a 5-foot9 guard, is playing in the post. The Blue Hens are outrebounding their opponents and holding them under 50 points a game. How do you adjust to such a disappointing -- potentially devastating -- situation? As tempting as it is to dwell on what you don't have, as the head coach, you have to focus on what you do have. Martin has a team with five seniors that she wants to guide to a season to remember. A good one.


ESPN.com: Women’s College Basketball Wednesday, October 17, 2012 Updated: October 18, 9:29 PM ET Star trio visits ESPN’s Bristol campus espnW Editor’s note: Women’s college basketball players Elena Delle Donne, Skylar Diggins and Brittney Griner visited ESPN’s Bristol, Conn., studios Wednesday. espnW was there for all the behind-the-scenes action as the star trio made its way around campus. 3:21 p.m.: Diggins is headed to the airport but says a lot in a short tweet: “Love it when you meet good players that are cool. Brittney and Elena are two of those players man …” Delle Donne, Diggins, Griner The 2012-13 national player of the year will almost certainly be one of these three players. 2:38 p.m.: Griner and the rest of the players are shooting promos for the upcoming women’s college basketball broadcasts on ESPN. Some would equate this to root canal work, especially people who are painfully shy. You sit in a chair and repeat certain promo phrases over and over. “Can you say it like you mean it?” But the three handle it in stride. Griner is also asked about the first time she got into basketball, which was around ninth grade. “When I first started playing, I thought, ‘I’ve got some work to do …’ I fumbled around a lot.” She said she has fond memories of playing in her backyard with her father and brother and that her sibling actually beat her a few times back in the day. Now? “Oh, I’d dominate.” Brittney Griner Baylor’s 6-foot-8 center Brittney Griner led the Lady Bears to a 40-0 record last season. 2:19 p.m.: Diggins was getting ready for her photo shoot and realized she had forgotten her jersey. Fortunately, she found a long-sleeved Irish T-shirt to wear. As she was getting ready, Diggins asked if she could leave her hair down. Someone said she had to wear her signature headband because “It’s not the prom.” Diggins laughed and said, “Tell my followers that.” Diggins ended up wearing the headband, which the photographer said made the shoot. Skylar Diggins Skylar Diggins’ signature accessory on court: It’s not the shoes, it’s the headband. 1:50 p.m.: Diggins is the most followed college athlete on Twitter, with more than 250,000 followers. She reported that she gained close to 1,500 followers after her “SportsCenter” appearance on Wednesday. “Social media has been great for a lot of reasons,” Diggins said. “I got on after high school, going into college, to keep in touch with friends. I also thought it would be a good networking opportunity. When I started playing more on TV sophomore year, celebs started reaching out, it got crazy. “I think it makes female athletes more approachable and accessible; it is great for the fans.”


Elena Delle Donne Elena Delle Donne, Delaware’s 6-foot-5 guard/forward, led D-I scorers in 2012 with 28.1 ppg. 1:35 p.m.: Delle Donne said she enjoys bringing the Blue Hens into the spotlight. “People want us to do well again,’” she said. “You want to be talked about, it means you are doing big things.” The most common question Delle Donne hears when she says she is from Delaware? “What state is that?” she laughs. “Then I tell them Delaware was the first state.” Diggins Kevin Negandhi interviews Notre Dame’s Skylar Diggins. 1:15 p.m.: Diggins, Delle Donne and Griner were asked about possibly playing together in the 2016 Summer Games in Rio. They got pretty excited. “We would just elevate each other’s games,” Delle Donne said. Diggins was already drawing up plays. “Pick and pop, screen and roll,” she said. 12:50 p.m. After a shuttle ride over to the on-campus kids center, Diggins made a quick change into her gray warmups and the trio prepared for an interview with Kevin Negandhi. They deferred lunch until after the sit down. Halloween Masks Trick or treat! Behind the masks, that’s (left to right) Brittney Griner, Skylar Diggins and Elena Delle Donne. 12:17 p.m.: After taping a live hit on “SportsCenter,” the trio taped a scaaaary skit for UNITE. There was some basketball involved, too. The players are getting a quick makeup touch-up before heading to ESPN’s Kids Center for more interviews and a little grub. 12:03 p.m.: The talk on the basketball court after the “SportsCenter” shoot quickly turned to tattoos. Brittney Griner said she has nine, Skylar Diggins has seven -- but it’s just in one spot and has been added to several times. Elena Delle Donne has one -- of her sister’s name with angel wings. But Delle Donne didn’t tell her mom right away about the tattoo. In fact, Delle Donne had the tattoo a year before revealing it to her mom -- who was cool about it. “I couldn’t be mad,” Joan Delle Donne said. Big Three on SportsCenter After separate interviews for most of the morning, the star trio appeared on “SportsCenter” together. 11:35 a.m.: As Griner waited for the other players to join her for an upcoming “SportsCenter” hit, Julie Bennett, Baylor’s director of athletic communications, told a story about some of the videos Brittney shot at last year’s Final Four. During one of those shoots, Griner was asked what was her favorite thing. Her answer: bacon. But, for some reason, some folks thought she said “baking.” Um, no. “I love bacon,” Griner reinforced Wednesday. She said it is common for her to have a big ol’ plate of it during pregame breakfasts on the road. And not overly cooked, either, people. This might explain why she is not a big fruit fan. 11:07 a.m.: Diggins takes on Skip Bayless on “First Take.” Asked about Notre Dame’s chances against Oklahoma in football, Diggins stuck up for her team.


“I know a lot of guys on the team, and we are rooting for them,” she said. If the choice is between the Notre Dame women’s basketball or football teams winning a national championship? “Naturally, I am going to pick my team,” she replied. Griner Brittney Griner pauses as yet another microphone is added prior to appearing on “SportsCenter.” 11:05 a.m. Griner said she can’t wait for the release of “Call Of Duty Black Ops II.” She said she loves playing video games, often against boys half her age -- they just might not sound that young. “I was online with a 7-year-old … you would have thought it was a grown man,” she said. “He was trash-talking me and telling me I suck.” Griner said she also likes to play “Assassin’s Creed,” while Diggins shook her head and said she isn’t very good at those kind of games. “Give me Wii bowling,” Diggins said. “I can do that.” Delle Donne During taping for the “Dan Lebatard Show,” Elena Delle Donne talked about one of her other loves: volleyball. 11:01 a.m.: Delle Donne is doing an interview with Dan Le Batard in a small space known as the “bureau cam room.” Beam her up, Scotty! Many analysts and guests in Bristol do interviews out of this tiny room. We can’t hear the questions being asked, but the Delaware star is actually talking volleyball: “If you don’t know how to block correctly, you can really get hurt,” Delle Donne is overheard saying. After leaving Connecticut, the 6-foot-5 Delle Donne enrolled at Delaware and earned Colonial Athletic Association all-rookie team honors her freshman season with the Blue Hens’ volleyball team. Delle Donne, who led Ursuline Academy (Wilmington, Del.) to four state basketball championships and the 2007 state volleyball title, led Delaware with 117 blocks and ranked second on the team with a .223 hitting percentage in 2008. 10:45 a.m.: Diggins talked headbands with the fans during her live chat on ESPN.com. This season, there will be a camouflage one to wear for the Carrier Classic, as well as lime green, pink and Navy headbands, all with the Irish logo on them. When asked who she is rooting for in the WNBA Finals, Diggins said she is rooting for the Lynx -- former teammate Devereaux Peters and best friend Candice Wiggins play for Minnesota. 10 a.m. Griner left “Mike & Mike” and headed to the hallway, where Kentucky coach John Calipari spotted her. The two hugged, someone asked for a picture, and the two complied. Then Coach Cal stuck his head in the makeup room where Delle Donne and Diggins were hanging out. “I want to get [a photo] with all three,” he said. As the group got together for a picture, coach jokingly started recruiting. “How about the three of you come play for me this year?” he asked. “We are going to be pretty young this year.” Griner & Greenie OK, so one is slightly taller than the other ... 9:54 a.m. Mike Greenberg stands back-to-back with Griner, saying his daughter will love to see how short he is compared to the star.


Greenberg asks Griner about breaking her wrist long boarding and her relationship with RG3. She says she sees the former Baylor QB, now an NFL rookie with the Redskins, when he returns to campus. “He is just a good guy,” she says, “easy to be around.” Brittney Griner was tempted to play with the bobbleheads on the “Mike & Mike” set. 9:48 a.m. Griner’s stopover at “Mike & Mike” lasts about eight minutes, and myriad topics are covered as the Baylor star and Mike Greenberg banter back and forth. No, she never considered leaving school to join the WNBA after last season. Yes, she and her teammates realize that being role models is part of the job -- and one they embrace. And yes, of course, if she’s double- or triple-teamed, that just means her teammates are open. “I’m willing to do whatever I can to get my teams to win,” Griner says. Greenberg recounts a conversation he had this past summer with Baylor coach Kim Mulkey, who said deep down, Griner is nothing but a big goofball. Griner’s grin grows and she nods her head. “Definitely, I’m a big goofball,” she says. “I just got done playing foosball in the back. And I have to say, I was the champ. If we weren’t on air, I’d be playing with all the bobbleheads right here.” Brittney Griner admits to being a big goofball off the court. 9:32 a.m. While Griner is getting prepped for an interview on “Mike & Mike,” Delle Donne is chatting online with ESPN.com and espnW readers. A few of the questions that draw laughter from the room are: What is she wearing for Halloween, and should Delaware change its name from the Blue Hens to the Delle Donnes. “You can’t get rid of the Blue Hen,” Delle Donne says. As for the costume, that needs a little more explaining. There apparently is a mural in Delaware that bears a likeness to Elena. She and her best friend will try to depict the mural. Elena Delle Donne Elena Delle Donne chatted with ESPN.com and espnW early Wednesday. 9:08 a.m.: Delle Donne is visiting campus with her mom, Joan. They lament the Yankees’ loss to the Tigers in Game 3 of the ALCS. The men in their family, Elena’s father and brother, are big Yankees fans. 9:02 a.m.: Griner plays foosball to pass the time before “Mike & Mike,” crushing every opponent in sight. “I didn’t know I was good at it,” Griner says. 8:34 a.m.: Griner returns from makeup saying it is only the second time in her life she has worn any -- the first was for the Honda Awards. 8:16 a.m.: Delle Donne answers a Twitter question from espnW about leaving UConn. She says she is often reminded about the national championships she could be missing out on. She says she’s happy to be home, at Delaware, and that family is more important. Griner All three players sat in the makeup chair Wednesday morning. Brittney Griner said it’s just the second time she has ever worn makeup. 8:16 a.m.: The three head to a waiting room. One by one they go to makeup. Griner goes first, laughing about how excited she is to get it done. 8:05 a.m.: Skylar Diggins, Elena Delle Donne and Brittney Griner arrive.


Senior night a fine finale for UD women's basketball team Written by Kevin Tresolini The News Journal Mar. 09 delawareonline.com NEWARK — Delaware’s women’s basketball seniors enjoyed a sentimental sendoff in their final home regular-season game Wednesday, including a pregame message from Vice President Joe Biden. But the best thing about an 86-58 victory over Georgia State was that the Blue Hens could say “See you soon” to a Carpenter Center sellout crowd of 5,092 rather than a final farewell. They’ll return to host an NCAA Tournament first-round game March 24, having put together the kind of illustrious regular season that ensures a postseason berth. Lauren Carra, Chelsea Craig, Elena Delle Donne, Jaquetta May, Kayla Miller, Trumae Lucas and Danielle Parker were introduced in pregame Senior Night ceremonies with family members. A particularly poignant moment occurred when Delle Donne was joined by her 28-year-old sister, Lizzy, who is blind, deaf and has cerebral palsy. Delle Donne has often cited her sister’s courage and strength as an inspiration, and decided to attend home-state UD rather than NCAA power Connecticut to be close to her. “She was able to walk out there and she had a big smile on her face,” Delle Donne said of her sister. “It was great and it was awesome that everyone was able to kind of meet Lizzy.” Delle Donne scored 24 points in the rout, including 19 as Delaware ran out to a 21-point halftime lead. Delaware hit a single-game school record 12 3-pointers, with four each by Delle Donne and Carra, who had 15 points. But a basket in the final minute by Craig, a team co-captain who had four career points before Wednesday and started for the first time, drew some of the night’s loudest cheers. No. 16-ranked Delaware (27-3 overall, 18-0 Colonial Athletic Association) won a school-record 22nd straight game, third-longest ongoing streak in NCAA Division I behind Baylor (27) and Notre Dame (23). Last year’s team won 21 straight while compiling a 31-2 record. “I thought the kids came in with a great mentality,” coach Tina Martin said after watching her team run out to a 16-0 lead. “Although there were tears on the bench, I thought they were pretty much focused. I’m really proud of the way they approached this game. I think they had fun with it, which was really good.” Delaware became the first team to finish back-to-back CAA seasons perfect in league play since Old Dominion went 16-0 in five straight seasons, ending in 1999-2000. The Hens are No. 1 seeds for the CAA Tournament March 14-17 at the Show Place Arena in Upper Marlboro, Md. The conference’s automatic NCAA Tournament representative is determined there. But Delaware, 17th in this week’s NCAA Ratings Percentage Index computer rankings, has already proven enough to warrant a spot in the 64-team NCAA field regardless of its CAA Tournament performance. A CAA tourney championship would give the Hens a higher seed and a better chance of advancing, however. Biden, a UD grad, phoned Martin Wednesday morning to congratulate her on the team’s success and pass his best wishes on to the seniors and their teammates. She suggested he call back after their conversation and leave a message, which she’d play for the players in the locker room before the game. In that, he told the team he was proud of its accomplishments, mentioned several seniors by name, said he hoped to attend an NCAA Tournament game if his schedule allows and urged the Blue Hens to “shoot the lights out” against Georgia State. Last spring, Biden hosted the Blue Hens for a picnic dinner at the Vice President’s Residence on the U.S. Naval Observatory grounds after giving them a personal White House tour. After playing Biden’s message, Martin said, “There didn’t need to be another word said. They were ready to play.”


Parker’s first rebound made her Delaware’s third player with 1,000 in her career. Only Colleen McNamara (1,063/1991-95) and Sharon Howett (1,009/1974-78) had hit that milestone before. Parker finished the game with 12. Lucas equaled a career high with nine assists and grabbed a career-best nine rebounds. “I think we were ready to handle business and go out with a bang for Senior Night,” Parker said, “and that’s what we did.” Georgia State (13-16, 5-13) played its final CAA game. The Panthers are moving to the Sun Belt Conference next year and are barred from the CAA Tournament as a result. Delaware has won 37 straight CAA regular-season games, a streak topped only by Baylor in the Big 12 nationally, and 39 in a row overall against CAA opposition.

Seniors end season selflessly Written by Kevin Tresolini The News Journal Mar. 09 delawareonline.com NEWARK — Senior Night festivities for the University of Delaware women’s basketball team were 48 hours away Monday when some tears hinted at what will surely be an emotional gathering tonight. Coach Tina Martin pulled her players together at practice and informed them she does not have a policy of starting seniors just because it’s their last home game. That would be impossible anyway this year, since seven Blue Hens are seniors. But Martin then said two starters, both seniors themselves, had asked that their starting spots be given to others for the 7 p.m. game against Georgia State. And that’s when some eyes became moist. Lauren Carra yielded her spot to Chelsea Craig, the team captain who has played just 37 minutes in 17 career games and never started. A CAA All-Academic pick, Craig has a year of eligibility left but is graduating this year. Jaquetta May also will start, courtesy of Kayla Miller. May, a spark plug out of Delcastle High, has started six career games and usually has been Delaware’s first or second player off the bench. Their shared Delaware ties moved Miller, an Ursuline Academy graduate, to cede her spot. As for Carra, she felt Craig’s importance to the team deserved a special tribute. “It’s for what people on the outside might not see,” Carra said. “It’s been hard for her to be a four-year senior and hardly step on the floor. But in practice, she’s always complimenting people, she never complains, she never has a bad attitude and she’s the first person to pick you up when you’re down. “That’s the person, as a senior, you want as a role model, and it’s been an unbelievable example she’s set for these freshmen and all the underclassmen. For all of that, it was the least I could do.” Craig is in her second year as a team co-captain. She’s graduating in May with a degree in exercise science but has decided to pursue a master’s in business administration. She has applied to Delaware. Martin recruited the 6-foot-2 Craig out of Wootton High in Rockville, Md., where she grabbed 990 career rebounds, with the understanding she’d be a role player at UD. The leadership role she ended up playing has been invaluable to the Hens and something Craig relished. “I was really grateful Lauren would do that,” said Craig, who has roomed with Carra three of the last four years. “I had no idea. It really caught me off guard. That’s what this whole experience is about, and that’s the definition of a teammate: She made a sacrifice for me.” Carra, Craig, May, Miller, Elena Delle Donne, Trumae Lucas and Danielle Parker will be honored prior to Delaware’s regular-season finale against Georgia State (13-15, 5-12). Lucas also will start in place of junior Akeema Richards, so Delaware has a point guard on the floor. The Carpenter Center is sold out. But it will not be the Blue Hens’ last home game. Delaware is an NCAA Tournament host and already has done enough to qualify for the 64-team field, either as CAA champion or an at-large entry. It’ll play a first-round NCAA game March 24 at the Carpenter Center. Those seven seniors have had widely varied UD backgrounds. Carra is an All-CAA player with 109 career starts, and May and Craig are fourth-year seniors. Parker is a fifth-year senior whose true freshman season was cut short by a torn ACL. Fifth-year seniors Delle Donne (Connecticut), Miller (George Washington) and Lucas (Florida) each signed elsewhere out of high school before transferring to Delaware.


Delle Donne’s decision to leave UConn after less than two days and come to Delaware, where she played volleyball but not basketball as a true freshman, has been well chronicled. Fellow Ursuline graduate Miller missed the entire 2010-11 UD season after undergoing back surgery. Martin’s message to the team heading into tonight has been to “slam the door on the regular season,” she said, “and I think they’re ready to do that.” Now up to 16th in the AP Top 25, Delaware (26-3, 17-0) seeks a school-record 22nd straight win tonight. The Hens aim to finish their second straight unbeaten league season going into the Colonial Athletic Association Tournament from March 14-17 at the Show Place Arena in Upper Marlboro, Md. Delaware is the No. 1 seed. Delaware beat Georgia State 70-38 in Atlanta on Jan. 31. This is Georgia State’s final CAA game ahead of its switch to the Sun Belt Conference next year. The Panthers are barred from the CAA Tournament because of that impending move, as is Conference USA-bound Old Dominion. “Being in the position that we’re in right now and the run we’re on right now,” Martin said, “these kids have just given everything they’ve had. ... And now it’s just one more big push. We’ve just got to finish it off. The focus has got to be there. The intensity has got to be there. Let’s just finish this thing.” Contact Kevin Tresolini at ktresolini@delawareonline.com.


'Leader' a title that fits Delle Donne Written by Kevin Tresolini The News Journal Mar. 09 delawareonline.com It was so loud inside the James Madison Convocation Center as tipoff approached Feb. 10 that one had to yell to be heard by someone nearby. So with Delaware’s women’s basketball game against James Madison closing in, that’s what Elena Delle Donne did. Before the Blue Hens retreated from their warmups back to the bench for pregame introductions, Delle Donne summoned her teammates together. They huddled just to the right of the basket where they’d be shooting in the first half. Delle Donne spoke in an animated, assertive fashion. They listened. “I actually thought that we seemed nervous,” Delle Donne said later. “The way we were acting, we were really quiet. Even with our shooting, we were missing shots we usually don’t miss. “I brought everyone in and I reminded them we’re the team to beat in the CAA and we needed to go punch them in the face. We’re the confident ones. They’re the ones who should be nervous. I was just trying to get us going.” Delaware went out and won 71-64 that day, a key victory en route to its second straight Colonial Athletic Association regular-season title. Another stiff challenge looms today as Drexel (20-7, 13-3 CAA) comes to the sold-out Carpenter Center. Tipoff is at 3:30. While Delle Donne, a first-team All-American last year as a junior, has been her usual prolific self, Blue Hens coach Tina Martin said her leadership has provided an additional boost for the soaring Hens. No. 18-ranked Delaware (25-3, 16-0) has won 20 straight and 24 of its last 25 games. Two regular-season games remain – Georgia State visits Wednesday – before the conference tournament March 14-17 in Upper Marlboro, Md. Delaware has the top seed. “She commands respect, obviously, because of her abilities but, also, because of who she is as a person,” Martin said of Delle Donne. “The kids really look to her whenever things aren’t going well. She’ll be able to calm them down. “She’s doing little things off the floor, like texting her teammates before games and giving them inspirational sayings. She’s just really grabbed on to that leadership role.” Delle Donne said she preferred to always lead by example. For her, that has always spoken volumes, considering her background as national player of the year as a senior at Wilmington’s Ursuline Academy in 2008. At Delaware, she has already rewritten the record book, while become the CAA’s all-time leading scorer. Her 25.5 points per game this year are second nationally in NCAA Division I. Her experience with the U.S. team at the World University Games in China during the summer of 2011 inspired Delle Donne to step up her leadership game. Delle Donne led the gold-medal-winning U.S. in scoring and rebounding. But she came away so impressed with how Notre Dame’s Skylar Diggins and Stanford’s Nneka Ogwumike inspired and helped bring out the best in teammates that she aimed to emulate that with the Blue Hens. “They were great vocal leaders,” Delle Donne said. “I’ve always been a quiet leader, where I feel like I lead by example with my work ethic. But I saw that I needed to bring that to the team. “Last year I did surprise myself and this year I knew I’d have to do it again. Now it comes easy. It’s a trait I needed to learn for our team to be better.” Delaware point guard Kayla Miller, Delle Donne’s teammate since high school and often the Hens’ most vocal leader,


has enjoyed and appreciated Delle Donne’s evolution. “She’s definitely a lot more outspoken,” Miller said. “Even when she wasn’t feeling well earlier this season [because of Lyme disease symptoms], she wasn’t the loud one – that was me – but she was still leading by actions. Before, she wouldn’t get on people. She would say something to me or coach Martin. But now, she’s so vocal. She’ll go to a person and say ‘Look for this’ or ‘Go this way.’ Seeing her actually going up and communicate to players is something I hadn’t seen. You can tell she’s a lot more confident in speaking up.” In the process, Delle Donne has also learned something else about herself. She only recently began considering coaching basketball when her playing career ends. Much of that, she said, sprang from road-trip discussions with Miller about their futures. “I want to take my playing career as far as it’ll go,” said Delle Donne, who’ll be among the first picks in April’s WNBA draft. “I don’t see myself ever getting out of basketball. I love it and I think I’d like to teach kids how to play and be a coach. I’m a competitor, too, so it’s in my nature. I couldn’t sit behind a desk. I have to be competing, and coaching is a way to do that.” Miller remembered a recent day-before-game walkthrough on the road during which Delle Donne had suggested some changes in Delaware’s zone defense. When the team got back on the bus, Martin sent Miller a humorous text, suggesting she had competition for her “coach on the court” title. “Elena’s a very smart basketball player, always has been, but she’s starting to be more of a coach out there, too,” Miller said. “So it was pretty funny. Elena and I have always been on the same page, so that’s great.” Delle Donne stepped away from basketball for a year after originally going to UConn but returning to Delaware so she could be closer to her family. As Delle Donne’s UD career winds down, Martin enjoys the full-circle viewpoint. “She talked about stepping away from basketball and had all kinds of stress issues and things that were going on in her life ... and now she’s even talking about becoming a coach,” Martin said. “I think it’s huge she feels that way and she has her passion back for the game of basketball. I’m just so proud of her as a person.” Contact Kevin Tresolini at ktresolini@delawareonline.com.


ESPN.com: Comfort Zone Graham Hays December 5, 2012 Comfort Zone Comfort Zone Elena Delle Donne, Skylar Diggins and Brittney Griner couldn't be more different on the court, but they all found the same secret to success right in their own backyards. By Graham Hays Brittney Griner, Elena Delle Donne and Skylar Diggins talk with ESPN's Kevin Negandhi about this season's expectations and what they respect most in each other. In the depths of a Texas summer, the heat and humidity set up shop well before dawn's first light and linger like party guests long past dusk. A girl, clothes caked in dust and soaked by sweat, face red from some combination of exertion and sunlight, charges into her house for a glass of water. She stubbornly ignores her mother's pleas to sit down and cool off for a few minutes, rushing back to whatever adventure awaits. Another girl silently watches older kids play basketball. It's cold outside, snow blanketing the ground in South Bend, Ind., a sacred place for college football but also the heart of basketball country. The court is in the recreation center her stepfather runs, but the girl, no more than 6 years old and until recently reluctant to leave her mom's side, is in the background, observing, unnoticed. In a suburban Delaware house, the basket is shorter and the court nothing more than a basement. A brother and sister play games of one-on-one with the intensity of a Final Four. The brother, three years older and a little too big, too strong for her, takes the lead. She throws a fit and storms away. He waits. He knows she will soon return to begin again. If nothing more than a coincidence of timing connected Brittney Griner, Skylar Diggins and Elena Delle Donne, it would be enough. If they had nothing in common but a shared gift for basketball, it would be enough to bind their stories, three women redefining what is possible in a sport as they complete college careers and enter the WNBA together. They are, after all, different in so many ways. Different in size. Different in talents and temperaments. Different on matters of style and substance. Different as basketball players. The reigning national player of the year who led Baylor to an unprecedented 40-0 record last season, Griner is a physical marvel, a 6-foot-8 post player without an ounce of awkwardness about her. It's just one small measure of her game, one not nearly as noticed as her dunks, but she alone blocked more shots last season than any of the other 335 teams that were full-fledged Division I members. "Watching Brittney, she just dominates a game," Delle Donne said. "You watch other teams, and their whole mindset is 'How can we shut down Brittney?' And going into games with that mindset, they still don't. It's awesome to watch something like that. She's changed women's basketball." The same could be said of Delle Donne. Just three inches shorter than Griner, the Delaware star has the kind of ball skills, agility and shooting touch historically reserved for players a good deal shorter, in addition to the post skills to go from guard to center in the course of any given possession. Teams are helpless to defend her. She sank 550 shots from the field or the free throw line last season and committed just 55 turnovers. Diggins and her Irish teammates said Delle Donne's multifaceted game reminds them of that of NBA star Dirk Nowitzki. "I love the way that she can score anywhere," Diggins said. "You have to contest the 3; you have to watch her off the dribble; and you have to also know how to play some post defense on her." The unprecedented size most associate with Diggins is that of her Twitter following, more than 279,000 strong (Notre Dame football coach Brian Kelly, by comparison, trails by around 200,000 followers, star linebacker Manti Te'o by almost as many). But if she looks like other players in the layup line, the similarity soon fades. No slouch of a program, Notre Dame reached two Final Fours before Diggins arrived. She is intent on appearing in her third straight in April. "I'm glad I'm not Odyssey," Griner said in reference to Baylor point guard Odyssey Sims. "I would not want to guard [Diggins] at all. It's crazy; she's just too quick. Dang, I'll stay down in the post." The three players are different, but also connected by that very uniqueness, bringing degrees of athleticism and fame


not seen before in women's college basketball. But they share more than that. Whether a matter of a few miles across town or a few hours through Southeast Texas, all remain close to their roots, close to those young girls they were. It is where Griner found the space to be herself. Where Diggins learned to live in the spotlight. Where Delle Donne is surrounded by her biggest fans. They are linked by where they have the potential to take a sport, linked by where they come from. Those people who followed and supported Delle Donne for years now make the University of Delaware's Bob Carpenter Center the site of something resembling a season-long party, one recently resumed in full when she made her debut after sitting out the team's first three games because of recurring effects of Lyme disease. Opened in 1992, it isn't the house she built, but it's the house she fills as few others ever did. The year before Delle Donne returned to basketball, the year she spent on the volleyball court at Delaware in 2008 after drawing national attention for staying one day at the University of Connecticut, fans had room to stretch their legs at the Bob during women's basketball games. The Blue Hens averaged a little better than a thousand fans per game over 13 home dates that season. All of that changed with Delle Donne's return. "There were a lot of new fans; there were younger faces in the crowd," said Meghan McLean, a freshman on that 2008 team. "A lot of parents were bringing their daughters to watch, and even their younger sons, and we were playing in front of sold-out crowds for a few of the games and packed crowds for other games." For the 2011-12 season, Delaware averaged nearly 4,000 fans, more than 1,500 more per game than the men's team, a squad that finished with a winning record and played postseason ball. Among those who came out to watch Delle Donne was Vice President Joe Biden, a former Delaware senator whose visit to speak to the team surely marked one of the first times in the annals of women's basketball that a coach's postgame team talk was delayed by a Secret Service sweep of the locker room. "Being a hometown player playing in front of your hometown fans is an experience you really can't explain." -- Elena Delle Donne Bernard Muir, now in his first year as athletic director at Stanford after serving in the same capacity at Delaware the previous three seasons, said one of the first things after taking the Delaware job was that Delle Donne had decided to play basketball again. Delaware had been a good program under coach Tina Martin, but Delle Donne changed its profile and athletic department. Muir likens the interest and opportunities to the Andrew Luck effect. "I have not seen such a spike in attendance primarily due to one individual," he said. "To watch what she was able to do in drawing interest, and the number of sellouts we had ‌ and all the accolades that came with the program primarily because of this special player, I had never seen quite such an outpouring." Any sense that Delle Donne returned to Delaware to avoid the spotlight dissipates when you see her there. Between her roots in the area, her exploits on the court and the unmistakable 6-foot-5 frame she carries with unabashed ease, she might be the most recognizable person in the state, at least when Biden is in the nation's capital. She doesn't appear to crave the attention, but if this bothers her, she hides it well. She is comfortable here, for reasons that become evident in, of all places, a barn. Finding the Delle Donne homestead requires a complicated navigation of state highways and winding back roads outside Wilmington, a little less than 20 miles from the University of Delaware campus. At least until the final turn, where a small handmade sign sticks out of the ground with the words "Party Barn" and an arrow pointing helpfully left. Joan Delle Donne, Elena's mom, offers a tongue-in-cheek welcome to "the compound" as she opens the door of what was formerly an actual horse-and-stable barn refurbished by the family and one of three buildings on the property, along with the family's house and another occupied by Elena's great-aunt and great-uncle.


Inside, it is easy to see why a person would want spend as much time here as possible. The woodwork and high roof give the feel of a ski lodge, with a giant television screen in one corner next to an appropriately large stone fireplace, complete with moose antlers above the hearth. There is a pool table, a well-stocked bar for the former athletes, three couches, and an array of recliners and chairs. A long dining table is tucked away in what amounts to an annex, like the private room at a restaurant. The ceiling is lower there, the walls closer than the cavernous dimensions of the great room. A painting of all three Delle Donne children at a much earlier time in their lives hangs on a far wall. The big room and its accompanying deck can host dozens for parties, such as one that unfolded during last season's NCAA tournament for those who didn't make the trip to Little Rock, Ark. But the dining room is where the family squeezes in for Sunday family meals -- chicken cordon bleu or stuffed pork chops, if Elena has any say in her mom's offerings. It's no secret what family means to Elena. The relationship with her older sister, Lizzie, who is blind and deaf and has cerebral palsy and autism, has been well chronicled. And it is powerful. Sitting next to her mom on a couch in the barn one night, Lizzie seems at once there and not there. She is completely cut off from any of the stories and jokes being told or points being made, but she is there in the most physical sense, nudging her mom, holding onto her, making a sign to indicate she wants something to drink. It's easy to understand why Elena feared the distance created by going away to college would effectively remove her from Lizzie's world. Between basketball, school and the events of her own life, she doesn't see Lizzie every day, but she is not far away. "Her relationship with Lizzie is huge," said Gene Delle Donne, the middle child of the three siblings. "It's so close. It's a big reason why she is such a homebody who came home from UConn, because she craves to be around Lizzie and to experience Lizzie grabbing her and sniffing her and just spend quality time with her." But the bond between Elena and her older brother also is significant. When Gene would go to the free throw line as a prep player at Wilmington's Salesianum School, opposing fans occasionally would try to get in his head by chanting that his younger sister was better. The only problem was it proved difficult to rattle someone who agreed. He was a good basketball player and a better football player, good enough to play Division I in the latter, but he has never been troubled by being the second-best athlete in the family. As referees around the Colonial Athletic Association have heard, he remains his sister's loudest and most partisan supporter. In past summers, he would wake up early before work to lend his 6-foot-6 frame to her on-court workouts or challenge her to games of full-court one-on-one after he read that was something Kobe Bryant did to work on his game. More than that, though, he's a gentle giant who wants everything for her and nothing in return. "When you're young and you've got things going on with basketball and stardom and all that and people interviewing you and always in your face, Gene has always been that person to just lighten up the mood," Elena said. "And literally every time I'm around him, I'm hysterically laughing. He's a funny, funny guy. Not only that, but he's probably my biggest supporter amongst anyone that I know." Elena Delle Donne's season has gotten off to a shaky start, as she deals with the effects of Lyme Disease. G Fiume/ Getty Images He was a senior in high school when she was a freshman, and it was his departure for college, first Duke and then Middle Tennessee, that she now points to as the time when basketball stopped being fun for her. Without his jokes and good-natured exuberance, all the pressures and expectations began to weigh her down. Not long after she left Connecticut and returned home, she visited Gene for a few days in Murfreesboro, Tenn. They went rafting and relaxed, and, for the first time in a long time, he saw her smile. She said she even briefly considered transferring to Middle Tennessee, a tantalizing thought in hindsight, given the Blue Raiders' up-tempo style, abandoning the idea only because Gene was in his final year. She had to find her own way back to basketball, but it cannot be complete coincidence that it came the year Gene returned to Delaware and went to work for his dad's company. Gene and his wife, Jennifer, live in an apartment that occupies the first floor of the barn. A Nashville native, Jennifer is easily the smallest member of a family always searching for leg room, not to mention a word in edgewise, but she holds her own amid an uber-competitive lot. She is the one the rest of the family points to as the person who suffers the most during Elena's games, the one who isn't much of a drinker but nonetheless ordered a round of shots for the family traveling party after one particularly nerve-rattling game at James Madison. To be part of the family is to be a part of the madness to which they happily succumb to between November and


April. To hear how closely Elena guarded against those who wouldn't understand, who might attempt to pull Gene away from it, is to understand what it means to her. "I was tough, always, when Gene dated because that's my best friend," Elena said. "For some reason, the first time I met Jennifer, it was different. I could just see Gene was really happy. More importantly, Gene was still himself. He was still really goofy, and she brought out all the goofiness and weirdness that comes along with my brother." This is family on an every-day basis. It can be much more in crisis, but it is no less important in mundane moments. This is what allowed Elena to raise the profile of an entire athletic department, perhaps an entire state. "Being a hometown player playing in front of your hometown fans is an experience you really can't explain," Delle Donne said. "It's cool to see the people who were watching me play in eighth grade in the state championship in the Bob Carpenter Center are still there watching me through college." And there is no place is she more at ease than sinking into one of the couches in the barn and watching family unfold around her. And the party that unfolds inside the Bob Carpenter Center has its roots in the peace of mind she finds in the barn. Brittney Griner is expected to be the No. 1 overall pick in next year's WNBA draft. AP Photo/Eric Gay Sitting next to Delle Donne and across from Diggins in a small office during the players' visit to ESPN in October, Griner ruefully recounted missing a class at some point in the past. It wasn't the snooze button that got her in trouble with her coach; it was a camera. More accurately, a bevy of cameras. She had stopped to fulfill one person's request for a photo when suddenly a cadre of schoolchildren came around a corner and besieged her. She found a receptive audience for the story. "The first picture does it," Diggins agreed. "That's the thing, the first picture," Delle Donne concurred. "It's the same thing. I kind of stand out with my height and everything, but most people are pretty good about it. If they see I'm trying to go to class, they let me go." Such experiences aren't unique to Delle Donne, Diggins and Griner. It's safe to assume Stanford's Chiney Ogwumike and Connecticut's Breanna Stewart, among many, find themselves face to face with their fair share of fans eager for a snapshot with a favorite player. But because they are in their final seasons and know what it's like to see stands full of the same people who have watched them for more than a decade, they do share something that sets them apart from their peers and any class that has come before. Diggins might not know a thing about Waco beyond the view from the hotel when her team played there. Delle Donne might have only hazy memories of South Bend from a recruiting visit. Griner might never have set foot in Delaware. But they understand exactly what drew each to her own place. "I think if she could be a lifetime college student, she'd probably decide to stay here, she loves the area so much," Renee Scott said of Diggins. "I don't think she really wants to leave. ‌ People have really embraced and supported her, and I know it means so much to her. That's a huge reason, that's the main reason, I think, why she decided to stay here, because of the people." Those people and places watched over all three as they grew from young girls into adults playing on a national stage. Somewhere now, there is a girl on a farm in Iowa, or the concrete courts of the Bronx, or the endless suburbs of Southern California whose surroundings will shape and steer her to become a player who will take the game to new heights. And when the time comes to choose a college, she might choose to stay close to home or explore new territory. There isn't a right or wrong answer. But for Griner, Diggins and Delle Donne, where they are from is at the heart of where they are going. Graham Hays is a writer for espnW.com. Email: graham.hays@espn.com

ESPN.com: Women’s College Basketball Thursday, March 14, 2013 Delaware’s other comeback story By Graham Hays espnW The incredulousness in the voice of the Drexel play-by-play announcer grew with each shot that slipped through the net in a January game against Delaware. And not for the reason that might first come to mind with the Blue Hens. Elena Delle Donne splitting two defenders and leaning into an 18-footer or drifting backward on the baseline for an unstoppable turnaround elicited only resigned appreciation from the broadcast. People in the Colonial Athletic Association have seen enough of those shots over the past four seasons to last them a lifetime. Opponents just hope to keep her highlights to a minimum, as Drexel mostly did on a day when the All-American scored 24 points. What left the voice calling the game incredulous were three 3-pointers by Kayla Miller, each field goal coming when her team either trailed or held a lead small enough that it could have been erased by the Dragons in a single possession. This was not, in a performance in which she also finished with seven assists and one turnover in 39 minutes, the Miller that Drexel previously encountered. “She’s been absolutely amazing this year. I think she’ll be finished with basketball after this -- I don’t think she’s going to go overseas or anything like that, so it means everything to me that this is such an incredible year for her … Kayla works so hard and she’s so selfless. She deserves this. ” -- Elena Delle Donne on longtime friend and teammate Kayla Miller Delle Donne is always going to bear the weight of Delaware’s postseason hopes on her shoulders, but it helps to have a senior point guard who is finally healthy after years of back problems that nearly forced her from the sport. “She’s always brought the leadership to the court, and she’s always been able to see the court better than anyone I’ve ever played with and just has a knack for the game,” Delle Donne said of someone she has played with in various settings for nearly a decade. “But now that she’s healthy, she’s an effective scorer and she’s a threat on the court. It makes a big difference now when teams have to respect her shot, they have to respect her game -- she can drive to the basket, she can hit the open jump shot.” She can sit, too. Not in games, mind you, not when she’s averaging nearly 30 minutes per game, but on buses and in classes. It’s difficult to know how sweet a feeling that is until you can’t. When Miller’s back problems were at their worst the past two years, she couldn’t sit in class for more than about five minutes before she had to get up and walk around to alleviate the pain. At times, amidst curious looks from classmates, she had to lie down in the aisles of lecture halls the way Larry Bird used to on the sidelines late in his career. Miller used a cane to help her get to the gym, where she would arrive hours before games for treatment. She even had to take a midterm exam while alternately standing up and lying down because she couldn’t sit. The class? Athletic training. Presumably she didn’t get marked down for the faulty state of her own body. The back problems began in high school, when Miller was diagnosed with three herniated disks. She continued to play, first with Delle Donne at Ursuline Academy in Wilmington, Del., then for a semester at George Washington and finally back home in Delaware, reunited with her friend. But one October morning in 2010, before what would have been her second season with the Blue Hens, she woke up before dawn in so much pain that she couldn’t walk. She had surgery on her back the next day and redshirted the entire season. Miller was told the surgery could help people live a normal life, but not one that necessarily involved the physical rigors of Division I athletics. By the end of that season, she was back on the court practicing, but the pain in her back and legs lingered and even worsened as the 2011-12 season arrived and she returned to the active roster. “When I’m on the court [last season], teams are basically playing us as if it’s 5-on-4,” Miller said. “So being on the court was very frustrating because I wasn’t able to really do much to help contribute to my team, other than get the ball to where it needs to be and provide that leadership on the floor. I wanted to do so much, but I physically wasn’t able to do that.” She appeared in all but one game (the absence due to back pain) but averaged just 16 minutes per game and hit nine field goals for the entire season. When the Blue Hens were undone by Kansas and standout point guard Angel Go-


odrich in the second round of the NCAA tournament, Miller spent just 13 minutes on the court. It wasn’t until after the season, nearly two years removed from surgery, that the pain abated. “Coming off that back injury, she was a little different of a player,” Delle Donne said. “Taking charges was even really hard for her, and that’s something she likes to do all the time. She was struggling and she wasn’t starting, and she’s always been a starter for us. I don’t know, she just didn’t have that bounce she usually has. “This year she’s got it -- she’s got even more than before.” Instead of receiving treatment before games, Miller is easy to spot out on the court a good two hours before tip, putting up shot after shot while her brother rebounds. Delle Donne noted Miller will always tell you she’s feeling good, even when she does it through a grimace that belies the sentiment. The truth is revealed by how much time she is able to spend on the basketball court. She spent a lot of time there this past summer. “This year, I knew she was going to have a good year because she had that bounce back in her step a little bit,” Delaware coach Tina Martin said. “Not that Kayla’s ever missed that bounce, but she played through some pain last year. And this year, for the most part, knock on wood, she’s played pretty much pain free. And I like that because she brings all that energy and hustle. She’s playing with kind of like a reckless abandon that she always plays with.” Entering the conference tournament, Miller had 53 more assists than turnovers. The rest of team was in the red in assist-to-turnover ratio. She isn’t a prolific 3-point shooter, but as the Drexel game demonstrated, she must be accounted for when she spots up. It’s also not a coincidence that someone who loves drawing charges so much that coaches have forbidden her from doing so in practice, lest she tweak her back, is part of a lineup that ranks ninth in scoring defense and eighth in field goal defense nationally, both improvements on a season ago. And after following equally circuitous paths here, two friends get one more run together in the postseason. “It means everything to me to see Kayla doing this well,” Delle Donne said. “She’s been absolutely amazing this year. I think she’ll be finished with basketball after this -- I don’t think she’s going to go overseas or anything like that, so it means everything to me that this is such an incredible year for her and just the pinnacle of her career. It just makes me smile. Kayla works so hard and she’s so selfless. She deserves this.” It doesn’t come without a price, some of it likely to come due only in the years to come. Friends and family caution Miller that she needs to think beyond her career on the college court to protect her quality of life decades down the road. She understands those concerns to the degree anyone can when they talk about 35 years old as a point in the distant future. She also understands what those minutes on the court mean to her right now. “In all honesty, this has been the best season I’ve enjoyed,” Miller said. “I’ve been having a great time with my teammates, I’ve been having a lot of fun on the court playing with them, all the fans in the community and things like that. I’m very grateful for having this fifth year to take because I just feel like I was able to create more relationships and have another great year with the people that I love.”


Experience allows UD coach to let loose, at least for a day Written by MARTIN FRANK COMMENTARY Mar. 18 delawareonline.com UPPER MARLBORO, MD. — Jacquetta May and Akeema Richards took the huge jug of water and sneaked up behind Delaware women’s basketball coach Tina Martin, ready to douse her after going through a second Colonial Athletic Association season undefeated. But the jug was heavy and they released it too soon. The water only partially got the back of Martin’s blazer. Undeterred, Martin dropped to the floor face down and did her version of a snow angel in the water. Then she got up smiling and hugged everyone around her. “I thought to myself, ‘That might be the worst miss we had the entire game,’ ” Martin said. “They missed me totally. Then I was like, ‘Somebody’s got to clean this up.’ Might as well be me. So I dove into the water and did my little snow angel. “But I wish they would have hit me because I was sweating like crazy.” Martin had every reason to sweat during the Hens’ 59-56 win over Drexel in the CAA Tournament championship game on Sunday. The Hens had lost a 17-point lead in the second half and trailed Drexel by a point with less than a minute left before Trumae Lucas and Elena Delle Donne each calmly made two free throws. After Drexel’s last possession ended in a turnover, Delle Donne picked up the ball and flung it the length of the court, draining the final second on the clock. So Martin celebrated like a child after the last day of school, knowing her team took everyone’s best shot and won – 42 straight times in conference play. For so many years, we had rarely seen this side of Martin. She had always been so serious and so focused. But having seven seniors has changed everything about her. “I challenge these young ladies and they give it right back to me,” Martin said. “And I like it. I like it when Elena says, ‘Coach, I think we should play this way.’ I’ll listen to her … [Lauren] Carra came over to me and said, ‘I’ve got a post player on me.’ So I ran a play for her. And it was late in the game. “They have input. Does it mean I always take it? No. But it means I consider it, I listen to it. That’s the kind of kids they are.” When Drexel threatened to take over the game, Martin was burning timeouts, trying to find ways to get the ball inside to Delle Donne, or to find open shots for Lucas or Carra. But she also noticed a calmness in her players, and that, in turn, reassured her. “In all honesty, being on this team and having seven seniors on this team, and the experience we have, you don’t really get that feeling [of everything slipping away],” Carra said. “We’re all confident in each other that we’re going to make the plays.” The game was only a microcosm of the last two seasons, when expectations were enormously high and the Hens had to fight to meet every one of them, whether it was Drexel’s rally or Delle Donne’s bout with Lyme disease, or any number of injuries that came up. “This was stressful,” Martin said. “It has been a stressful, wonderful, amazing two years. ... When I talk about the stress, it’s probably self-imposed. But I don’t want to lose. These kids don’t want to lose.” Martin revealed after the game that Carra was playing with a bruised hand that was so painful that she couldn’t really shoot. Instead, she picked off two passes and went in for one layup and passed off to Delle Donne for another. She finished with 10 rebounds and six assists. “I felt like I had to do something out there,” Carra said sheepishly. She did enough, and so did her teammates, which is why Martin said she was “the happiest person in the United States of America.” “I am going to enjoy this [up until] today in the [NCAA Tournament] Selection Show,” Martin added. “As soon as that name flashes up of whoever we’re playing, then that smile will be off my face.” In other words, back to business.

Delaware women, Delle Donne making return trip to NCAA basketball tournament Written by Kevin Tresolini The News Journal Mar. 18 delawareonline.com UPPER MARLBORO, MD. —The University of Delaware is ranked 15th nationally and thus was bound for the NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament regardless of Sunday’s outcome. Still, the Blue Hens had a keen interest in how they got to the NCAAs. Winning the Colonial Athletic Association Tournament title was preferred, and Delaware did so despite a hardy challenge from Drexel at the Show Place Arena. A 17-point second-half lead didn’t hold up against Drexel’s 3-point shooting and a UD cold spell. The Hens went into the final minute down by a point. Two free throws by Trumae Lucas inched Delaware ahead by one with 44 seconds left. Two Drexel turnovers then sandwiched Elena Delle Donne’s two free throws with 9.9 seconds left, giving Delaware a hard-fought 59-56 win and setting off a noisy celebration among a Delaware-dominated crowd of 2,160. Delle Donne, who scored a game-high 28 points, was named tournament MVP. Lucas, who scored 12, joined her on the all-tournament team. Lauren Carra’s 10 rebounds, six assists and two steals were also critical. “We wanted this championship so bad,” Delle Donne said. The top-seeded Blue Hens (30-3) extended their school-record win streak to 25 games. Delaware has won 42 straight against CAA foes since falling to James Madison in the CAA title game here two years ago. “The seven seniors, we’re never going to play another CAA team again after [Sunday],” said senior point Kayla Miller, “and we didn’t want to go out with a loss. Especially going into the NCAA Tournament with a loss? That’s just not good for team morale.” The 64-team NCAA bracket will be revealed tonight at 7. Most predictions have the Hens landing a fourth or fifth seed. This will be UD’s fourth NCAA appearance and second in two seasons. “We worked so hard,” coach Tina Martin said. “It’s so incredibly hard to go undefeated [in conference] two years back-to-back.” Delaware is a site for a first-round NCAA Tournament doubleheader Sunday, with tip-off times tentatively set for noon and 2:30 p.m., followed by a 7 p.m. second-round game Tuesday, March 26. The Blue Hens are certain to play on their home court. All games are sold out except for the 100 tickets each of the other three participants is allotted to sell. Delaware was playing in its fifth CAA final in 12 seasons in the league and notched its second title, having beaten Drexel 59-43 last year. Taylor Wootton scored 21 points and Hollie Mershon had 18 points and nine assists for No. 3 Drexel (22-10). Drexel has lost seven straight to Delaware but frequently been competitive until the final possessions. The Dragons’ 43.8 field-goal percentage (21-for-48) was the highest by a UD opponent this year and featured 7-for-13 aim on 3-pointers in the second half. “They made a great comeback,” Delle Donne said, “and they’re an incredible shooting team, so when you’re up on Drexel you never feel comfortable until the clock hits zero.” Delaware scored on 10 of its first 13 possessions and took a 21-9 lead on Lucas’ 3-pointer with 10:45 left in the first half. The Hens then shot 1-for-11 before Miller’s putback at the buzzer put them up 30-27 at halftime. Drexel’s 7-for-12 shooting in the final 9:40 fueled its comeback. But Delaware came out fast in the second half, scoring on seven of its first eight possessions and going ahead 46-29 on


Delle Donne’s drive with 14:37 left. Steals by Carra led to two fast-break baskets during the 16-2 run.Again, Drexel came to life. The Dragons went on a 13-0 run to pull within 48-45. Delle Donne’s bank shot that made it 50-45 with 7:20 left was Delaware’s first field goal in more than seven minutes after six misses. But after Akeema Richards’ 3-point play made it 53-48 with 6:17 left, Delaware didn’t make another field goal and didn’t score again until Delle Donne’s two free throws put it ahead 55-53 with 1:33 to go. Wootton answered with a 3-pointer from the baseline with 1:11 left as Drexel took a 56-55 lead, its first since 2-0. Lucas was then fouled driving to the basket. A 72.5-percent foul-shooter this season entering the game, she coolly drained two. “I didn’t think about the fact that I needed to put us back in the lead,” she said. “I just went up there and shot ’em like they were regular free throws. I was definitely calm when I walked up to the line.” A traveling call derailed Drexel with 19 seconds left. Delle Donne, among the national leaders with a 92.4-percent free-throw average, sank her two. Lucas then helped force an errant Drexel pass that ended up in the arms of Delle Donne, who flung the basketball down court. Soon, Miller leaped into her arms and the merriment could begin. “When that buzzer sounded I was the happiest person in the United States of America,” Martin said.

Elena Delle Donne named CAA player of year for third time Written by Kevin Tresolini The News Journal Mar. 18 delawareonline.com Elena Delle Donne’s record-setting University of Delaware career concluded with an unprecedented haul at the Colonial Athletic Association season-ending awards ceremony Wednesday night in National Harbor, Md. The senior All-American swept first-team All-CAA, All-Defense and All-Academic while becoming just the third player to be named CAA Player of the Year three times. It was the third time the Ursuline Academy graduate had earned all four distinctions. The lone exception was 2010-11, when Delle Donne missed eight CAA games because of Lyme disease symptoms and was first-team All-CAA and All-Academic but was not Player of the Year or All-Defense. Teammate Lauren Carra, a senior guard, was a second-team All-CAA pick in the coaches’ voting after making the third team the last two years. Senior Chelsea Craig and sophomore Stephanie Leon were honorable mention All-Academic selections. Delaware, 27-3 and ranked 15th nationally, opens CAA Tournament play Friday at noon at the Show Place Arena in Upper Marlboro, Md. Delaware meets the winner of today’s noon first-round game between No. 8 George Mason (920) and No. 9 UNC Wilmington (4-25). The CAA’s automatic NCAA Tournament bid will be decided in Sunday’s 2 p.m. title game, though Delaware has certainly already secured a spot in the 64-team field. The Carpenter Center is a site for first-round (March 24) and second-round (March 26) games and the Blue Hens will play on their home court. The NCAA field will be announced Monday night, with Delaware expected to be a fourth or fifth seed if it wins the CAA tourney. Delle Donne is just the second player in the conference’s 30-year women’s basketball history to be first-team all-league four times. The other was Old Dominion’s Ticha Penicheiro from 1995-98. Delle Donne missed six of Delaware’s first seven games this year while dealing with Lyme disease symptoms that caused extreme fatigue and achiness. “Battling through the illnesses that she’s had and the struggles that she’s had physically,” coach Tina Martin said, “I think is a testament to her desire to finish this off.” Delle Donne has 2,870 career points, with a chance to become the ninth Division I player to score 3,000, despite missing 22 games during her UD career because of illness and injuries. Had she played in those games, Delle Donne likely would have threatened the record 3,393 points scored by Jackie Stiles of Southwest Missouri State from 1997-2001. The 6-foot-5 guard/forward is second nationally with 25.5 points per game while shooting 49.5 percent from the field, 48.4 percent on 3-pointers and 92.3 percent at the foul line, which ranks third nationally.

Frank: Expect The Bob to be a big boost Written by MARTIN FRANK COMMENTARY Mar. 18 delawareonline.com NEWARK —The loud cheering in the large atrium packed with about 500 fans ground to a sudden halt when the Delaware’s bracket in the NCAA Tournament showed a possible second-round matchup against No. 3 seed North Carolina. It’s not that the University of Delaware women’s team, which was given a No. 6 seed, doesn’t think it can win. Far from it. It’s just that nobody expected such a difficult road, beginning with the Hens’ first-round matchup against 11th-seed West Virginia.But really, there might just be a method to all of this madness. If there’s one thing about the women’s NCAA Tournament, it’s that you don’t see nearly the amount of upsets that you do in the men’s tournament. For example, you can pretty much pencil in top seeds Baylor, Notre Dame, UConn and Stanford in the Final Four right now. So in a way, giving UD a No. 6 seed makes perfect sense. The Hens will be at home at the Bob Carpenter Center, which is a huge advantage in itself, and there will be a chance for an upset, something the women’s tournament craves. Do you think North Carolina wants to face Delaware in a potential second-round matchup in front of a sold-out crowd next Tuesday? “We’re going in as the underdog,” UD senior Lauren Carra said. “But it’s going to be a tough place for anyone, any visitor, to come in and play. We’re very excited to be at home.”Look at it this way: Last season, UD was a No. 3 seed in the NCAA Tournament and was sent to Little Rock, Ark., and lost in the second round to No. 6 seed Kansas. This season, with every starter back, with a school-record 25-game winning streak, with a 42-game winning streak in the Colonial Athletic Association, the Hens are a No. 6 seed. The Hens have a worse seed on a team that has seven seniors, including Elena Delle Donne, who got valuable experience from going through the NCAA Tournament last season. The only difference was that last year, the Hens went into the tournament with just one loss. This season, they have three, but two of those losses came early in the season when Delle Donne was sitting out while suffering from symptoms of Lyme disease. So that shouldn’t count against them. The fact is that the Hens are better than they were last year. But as a No. 6 seed, the tournament gets a strong team playing at home with a chance for an upset, a chance to add some much-needed spice to the tournament. It’s not that the players care. Minutes after the bracket was revealed, UD coach Tina Martin got up and told the hundreds of fans gathered at the Embassy Suites: “Honestly, I actually like our bracket.” Of course she does. The Hens are at home and that counts for a lot. “Our fans are crazy, they’re awesome and they’re going to be absolutely nuts,” Delle Donne said. “They’ve been nuts all year, but I’m ready for them to be even crazier. I’m far ... happier with a [No. 6] seed playing at The Bob than a [No. 3] seed playing out in Arkansas. “Our fans at our court is far more important than any seed.” Is that homecourt advantage enough against tested teams from BCS conferences like West Virginia from the Big 12, which played Baylor twice (and lost badly to each time)? Or an ACC team like North Carolina that played Duke twice (lost both) and Maryland three times (won twice) this season? Maryland also beat Delaware at The Bob this season. “Once the ball is tossed up, it’s not an advantage,” Martin said. “That kind of goes out the window once the game starts. It helps in late-game situations because [the fans] can give us some added adrenaline .“Between the lines, it comes down to who’s focused, who’s executing?” That will ultimately determine the Hens’ success. But make no mistake, as Martin put it: “I’m really, really happy that we’re at home.” Contact Martin Frank at mfrank@delawareonline.com.
