WINSTON-SALEM, North Carolina -- Delaware State recorded one of the biggest wins in school history Friday evening, stunning Wake Forest 72-65 at the Joel Veterans Memorial Coliseum this evening. It also marked the Hornets' first-ever win against an Atlantic Coast Conference team.
Amere May scored a game and career-high 32 points to lead the Hornets. May was 10-for-20 from the field, including a career-high six three-point field goals (6-10). He was also six-of-six at the free throw line.
Kendall Gray was two blocks shy of the first triple double in modern school history. Gray had 14 points (6-8 FGs), a career-high 16 rebounds and tied the school record for the third time in his career with eight blocks.
"This is a tremendous win for our team and our university," said Delaware State head coach Keith Walker. "To defeat an Atlantic Coast Conference team on their home floor after losing our previous game by 50 points two nights ago (Nov. 26 vs. Iona) says a great deal about the character of the young men on this team. I couldn't be more proud of the guys and my staff."
Delaware State trailed 38-36 at the half, but outscored the Demon Deacons 72-65 in the final 20 minutes.
