- Delaware is coming off a 67-63 win over William & Mary Tuesday night. The Blue Hens were led by senior guard Courtni Green with 23 points and sophomore forward Makeda Nicholas with eight rebounds.Â
- Freshman center Kayla Cooper-Williams is just two blocks away from setting the record for freshman blocked shots, currently held by Hollee Franklin with 37. Cooper-Williams finished with five blocks against the Tigers, pushing her season total to 36.Â
- James Madison is atop the CAA leaderboards in defensive rebounds with 29.1Â per game, followed closely by Delaware in second with 27.3 per game.Â
- JMU leads the all-time series 17-13, winning the last five games against Delaware. The Dukes hold an 8-5 advantage over the Blue Hens at the Convocation Center.
- FORMAT:Â Instead of two 20-minute halves, women's basketball games will now have four 10-minute periods with an intermission between the first and second periods and the third and fourth periods as well as a 15-minute halftime intermission.
- FOULS:Â A player will be awarded two free throws for each common foul committed by a team starting with the fifth team foul in each period - there are no more 1-and-1 situations. Team foul counts will reset at the beginning of each period.
- TEAM-CALLED TIMEOUTS:Â Each team will have four timeouts to be used during the course of the game (three 30-second timeouts and one full 60-second timeout). Three timeouts carry over to the second half; if no timeout is taken in the first half, a team loses one 30-second timeout. If the game goes past regulation, one 30-second timeout is awarded for each extra period, plus the remaining second-half timeouts.
- MEDIA TIMEOUTS (2:45 in length):Â There will be seven media timeouts during regulation time: three prior to halftime and four after halftime. The intermission between the first and second periods as well as the intermission between the third and fourth periods will count as media timeouts. Each period will have one media timeout at either the first team-called timeout of the period OR the first dead ball at or below the five-minute mark. A floating media timeout will take place during either the third or fourth period at the first team-called timeout. This will not eliminate the set media timeout of that period.
