WINCHESTER, Va. - Visiting Greensboro College ended Shenandoah University's two-game USA South Conference men's basketball winning streak Saturday afternoon with a 79-73 win before a capacity crowd at Shingleton Gymnasium.

The Hornets (6-12, 3-2 USA South) shot a season low 39.3 percent from the line (11 of 28) in the contest to hurt their chances against the Pride (9-8, 2-2).

Conversely, Greensboro made 18 of its 20 attempts from the charity stripe (90 percent) while also shooting 45.3 percent (29 of 64) from the field.

The two teams traded the lead and were tied for a total of six times during the first half before GC finally went on top to stay with an RJ Smith jumper at the 9:25 mark.

Smith's field goal, one of 11 he had on the night, was part of a 10-0 run that gave the visitors an eight-point advantage with 8:17 to play.

Shenandoah answered that run with a 6-0 spurt of its own, but would get no closer than two points the rest of the way.

Another 10-0 GC run, this one over a span of 2:01 early in the second half, basically clinched the contest for the Pride.

Smith did the damage in this one as well with six of team's points and all coming on layups.

After falling behind by as many as 17, SU gradually chipped away at the deficit until cutting it to five, 70-65, with 1:58 remaining following a Mitch Dudley jumper.

Unfortunately for the home crowd, Smith answered with another layup 27 seconds later and the Hornets never seriously threatened again.

Smith led all scorers with 24 points with teammate Adam Powell adding 16. Powell was also 10 of 10 from the line.

Dudley, along with Kevin Kline had 16 each for SU. Chris Schrader and Kenny Robertson rounded out the Hornets double-digit scorers with 14 and 10, respectively.

Shenandoah is back in action tomorrow against Methodist. Game time is 4:00 and all gate receipts will be donated to Haitian earthquake relief.
