In celebration of Baby Blue's 10th birthday, a Mascot Mayhem game will take place at intermission. Eight of YoUDee's professional mascot friends from around the area will invade the arena for a pre-game meet-and-greet, photo opportunities and halftime entertainment, all while mingling and taking part in a number of planned timeout festivities.

All mascot performers are UD alumni ranging from classes of 1997 to 2009. In addition to the three UD characters, mascots will include Houston Rockets' Clutch, Eagles' Swoop and Air Swoop, Blue Rocks' Rocky Bluewinkle, Reggy, Ravens' Poe, Washington Capitals' Slapshot and Air Slapshot, Washington Nationals' Screech, Durham Bulls' Wool E. Bull and Reno Aces' Archie.

The Blue Hens, who received a pair of votes in the USA Today/ESPN Top 25 Coaches' Poll announced on Monday, will face the Huskies for the second time this season. Delaware (17-9, 9-6 CAA) defeated Northeastern (12-14, 7-8 CAA), 61-53 at Solomon Court on Jan. 10 in Boston.
