WINCHESTER, Va. - Old Dominion Athletic Conference powerhouse Randolph-Macon took everything Shenandoah's women's basketball team could throw at it Saturday night and still left the Hornets winless following the 68-66 RMC triumph.

Shenandoah (0-4) kept pace with the Yellow Jackets (5-2) - who appeared in last season's NCAA Tournament - trailing only 35-31 at the half, but ultimately could not shake the turnover bug once again.

Despite the loss, SU looked stronger as a unit than it had in the previous three games. The resurgence could be largely attributed to an emotional boost off the bench from veteran Adina Trammel (Leesburg, Va./Loudoun Co.) who netted nine points and pulled down eight boards in her first appearance since the 2000-01 season.

Sophomore Dee Fisher (Arlington, Va./Yorktown) seemed to benefit the most from the uplifted team spirit as she poured honey all over the Yellow Jackets to the tune of a game high 25 points on 10-for-14 shooting (including four-out-of-five from behind the arc).

Megan Silva led RMC with 23 points on nine-of-18 shooting while Emily Crider of the Yellow Jackets had the game's lone double-double registering 16 points and pulling down 12 boards.
