Hens’ schedule altered: The Colonial Athletic Association has announced the men’s basketball game between Delaware and Hofstra, previously scheduled for Saturday, will now be played today at 1 p.m.
After consultation with the conference office and medical professionals, the athletic directors at both institutions agreed to move Saturday’s game out of concern for the health, safety and well-being of the Delaware student-athletes.
The Blue Hens had a game at William & Mary last Sunday canceled because they had only five scholarship players available due to injury.
Ryan and Andrew Carr are expected to return from injuries today, giving Delaware seven scholarship players plus two walk-ons. Kevin Anderson and Aleks Novakovich are still out.
The two teams are still scheduled to play the second game of their series on Sunday. That game will tip at 1 p.m. instead of the previously announced 2 p.m. start.

DSU re-hires two coaches: Delaware State announced Thursday that volleyball coach Bruce Atkinson and women’s soccer coach Kortney Rhoades have both signed new two-year contracts with the school.
The Hornets made big strides in Atkinson’s first season with the program in 2019, posting a 10-win improvement from the previous year.
Delaware State’s 12 wins in 2019 (12-18) were the most by the team since posting an 18-12 mark in 2010. The Hornets had just 12 wins combined in the six seasons prior to his arrival.
Rhoades, a native of Wilmington, is in her fifth year as head coach of the Delaware State women’s soccer team.
