Carroll tallies 18 points in loss to Delaware

Bangor, Maine -- The University of Maine women's basketball team suffered an 83-60 setback to Delaware on Monday evening. Maine, playing its first game at the Cross Insurance Center in 620 days, was led by Maeve Carroll's season-high 18 points to go along with eight rebounds and four assists.

Anne Simon registered double-figures for the third consecutive game with 13 points on 6-of-14 shooting while Alba Orois packed the stat sheet with nine points and career-highs of eight rebounds and nine assists.

Delaware was led by Jasmine Dickey's 32 point, eight rebound effort.

The Black Bears, who finished 24-of-60 while hitting 9-of-10 from the free throw line, assisted on 15 of their 24 buckets while forcing 11 turnovers.

Delaware jumped out to an early five point lead before five-straight points from Orois tied the game midway through the first.

The Blue Hens responded with a 9-0 run but Maine once again answered. The Black Bears pieced together a 7-0 run of its own as Bailey Wilborn knocked down a triple off the fastbreak to cut the deficit to a pair.

Delaware was able to extend its lead out to 10 in the second but Maine once again rallied. Carroll cashed in a bucket in the paint while drawing the foul and completing the traditional three-point play. Another bucket from Carroll off a turnover came before Orois' jumper as Maine's 7-0 run brought it within three.

The Blue Hens regained a double-digit lead, 46-34, with 6:44 left in the third before taking a 55-46 edge into the fourth.

A 21-6 run from the visitors pushed the advantage to 24, 76-52, with 4:28 left in regulation.

Maine was unable to trim the advantage under 21 the rest of the way before ultimately falling in the non-conference showdown, 83-60.

Maine returns to action on Friday when it travels to take on Yale at 6 p.m. in the first of four-straight road contests.
