The Lightning’s unprecedented basketball season reached its conclusion Thursday evening as Goldey-Beacom suffered a 111-78 defeat against fourth-seeded Daemen University during first-round NCAA Tournament action in Amherst, New York.
The loss marked the end of what had been the most successful campaign in the program’s entire history for the Wilmington-based college.
Despite the tournament setback, the Lightning’s journey to March Madness represented a remarkable achievement for the small Delaware institution, capping off a season that exceeded all expectations and established new benchmarks for the basketball program.
