BALTIMORE (AP) David Walker scored 17 points and Quincy Ford had 16 as third-seeded Northeastern edged No. 6 seed Delaware 67-64 in the Colonial Athletic Association tournament quarterfinals on Saturday night.

With eight seconds to play, Delaware's Kory Holden drove inside for a layup to bring the Blue Hens (10-20) to within one point, 65-64, before a foul by Kyle Anderson sent Walker to the line where he sank two, sealing the Huskies' victory.
