NEWARK, Del. – The Northeastern men's basketball team will look to get back on track on Saturday afternoon when the Huskies take on Delaware at 12 p.m. on CBSSN.
 
THREE THINGS TO KNOW
 
1. THE SERIES WITH DELAWARE
The Huskies and Blue Hens are meeting for the 63rd time in series history, and second time in the last two weeks. UD owns a 33-29 edge in the series, with Northeastern grabbing a 59-58 win on Jan. 16 in Boston.
 
In that game, Northeastern erased a 16-point first half deficit, capped by a jumper from Jahmyl Telfort with 4.9 seconds to play. 
 
2. CLIMBING THE CHARTS
Jahmyl Telfort has put the Huskies on his back this season, eclipsing the 20-point plateau eight times including in six of the past 13 games. In road games, Telfort is averaging 15.7 points per game and shooting 47% from the floor (57-of-122).
 
His 18 points on Thursday at Towson moved the junior into 49th on Northeastern's all-time scoring list with 923 points. He's just the 15th player in program history to crack the top-50 in scoring in three seasons or less.
 
3. DOUBLE 'EM UP
Chris Doherty (15 points, 14 rebounds) and Joe Pridgen (14 points, 14 rebounds) had big nights for Northeastern on Jan. 16 vs. Delaware, recording their first double-doubles of the season in a 59-58 come-from-behind victory. It was the first time this season, and first since Nov. 30, 2021, that two Huskies both recorded double-doubles in the same game.
 
Doherty has three double-doubles in his last four games, averaging 10.5 points and 11.3 rebounds in that span, including 12 points and a season-high 16 boards at Towson on Thursday.
