March 18, 2004 was the final game for the Flyers for seniors Keith Waleskowski (below), Ramod Marshall (above) and Sean Finn. Each of the trio hit 1,000 points in their career. The March 18th NCAA Tournament loss to DePaul -- in which those three seniors combined for 49 of UD’s 69 points -- was only the sixth time three players with 1,000 career points played together for UD. Marshall and Waleskowski were part of multiple trios; as the two and Brooks Hall pulled the feat in 2003.
