NORFOLK, VA - Norfolk State's Michael Deloach stands about 5-foot-11, which made his 360-degree dunk attempt in the first half Monday night look problematic from the start. Deloach appeared to take off too close to the bucket, failed to get sufficient elevation and smacked the ball against the bottom of the rim.

NSU coach Anthony Evans didn't bat an eye at the audacious attempt. It was just Deloach being Deloach, the Spartans' energy guy off the bench. The junior from Rocky Mount, N.C., played his role to the hilt Monday, pumping in 16 points in 21 minutes to lead Norfolk State past Howard 59-44.
