This win marks a crucial moment for the Chargers, who improved their record to 3-3, while the Hornets fell to 0-5 on the season.

The scoring plays highlighted Fitzpatrick's efforts, including a layup assisted by Andre Pasha and several crucial free throws that extended the Chargers' lead as the game progressed.
Delaware State's recent form has been troubling, as they have yet to secure a win this season.
