From notes:
The University of Delaware kicks off yet another promising season tonight here at Delaware Stadium as the Blue Hens play host to West Chester in the final chapter of this local rivalry that dates all the way back to 1941. Both teams will be looking to make return visits to the NCAA Tournament after missing out a year ago. Delaware posted a 7-4 mark in 2011 but missed out on a post-season berth by a single game. This year the Hens, who return 14 starters, have been picked in the Top 15 in virtually ever pre-season national poll. West Chester, which like Delaware is a consistent post-season qualifier, is coming off a rare losing season with a 5-6 mark a year ago. The Rams are a veteran team with 13 starters and numerous seniors returning for the 2012 campaign.
