Delaware continued its improbable run in the Coastal Athletic Association Tournament with a 82-72 win over No. 1 seed Towson in the CAA semifinals Monday. Delaware entered the conference tournament with a 15-19 record and had lost six consecutive games before becoming the first double-digit seed to advance to the CAA semifinals since 2002.

That coveted NCAA Tournament bid continues to elude Towson men’s basketball. Armed with what seemed to be their best opportunity to end a 34-year absence from the big dance, the No. 1 seed Tigers couldn’t keep up with No.

The Towson Tigers' NCAA Tournament hopes faded away with an 82-72 loss to Delaware in the Coastal Athletic Association Tournament semifinals on Monday.

Facing second-seeded UNC Wilmington on Tuesday night, Delaware will look to become just the third team to win five games in five days, joining 2011 UConn and 2024 N.C. State.
