UMES rebounded nicely from its last game, a loss against Morgan State. Winning its last game of the season is all they could’ve asked for. They’ll head into the offseason on a good note. On the other side, Delaware State’s struggles continue. The team can’t seem to stop the losses from piling up. The team will have to wait until next year for redemption, as this was its final game of the season.
