WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. -- — Hunter Sallis scored 19 points, Andrew Carr added a double-double and Wake Forest cruised to an 88-59 victory over Delaware State on Monday night.

The Demon Deacons built the 10-point lead by making 7 of 17 from 3-point range and 9 of 11 at the free-throw line. Delaware State shot 48.4% in the first half, but the Hornets made just 2 of 9 from beyond the arc and did not attempt a foul shot.
Delaware State scored the first four points of the second half, but the Hornets would get no closer. Miller hit two free throws to push the Demon Deacons' lead to 64-44 with 12:21 left to play. Sallis had back-to-back baskets to up the advantage to 83-53 with 3:37 remaining.
