Drexel stuns Delaware by overcoming 34-point deficit in record win

When Drexel coach Zach Spiker talks to his team about never giving up, he’ll cite Thursday’s record-setting comeback against Delaware as the No. 1 example.

Down by as many as 34 points in the first half and 27 at intermission, the Dragons stormed back for a stunning 85-83 win over visiting Delaware at the Daskalakis Athletic Center.
According to David Worlock, NCAA director of media coordination and statistics, this was the largest comeback in Division I men’s basketball history. That broke the mark set when Duke beat Tulane after trailing by 32 points on Dec. 30, 1950.
“So many times we say it is a great day to be a Dragon,” Spiker said. “Anytime we had a dead ball in the second half, we said, ‘It is a great day for a comeback.'”
