Women Soar Over Angels

RALEIGH, N.C. - Shenandoah University put the finishing touches on a perfect USA South Conference women's basketball road trip this weekend with a 76-60 win at Meredith College Sunday afternoon.

The Hornets (12-7, 8-5 USA South) won for the fifth straight time by jumping all over MC (6-12, 5-8) in the opening 20 minutes.

SU raced out to a 39-15 halftime lead as the Avenging Angels shot just 5 for 33 (15.2 percent) from the field in the first.

Conversely, coach Michelle Guyant-Holloway's women were 15 for 34 (44.1 percent) from the field and all 10 women that saw action in the half scored at least two points.

Junior Sierra Edwards led this group with seven points; all three of her field goals came on fast breaks during a 9-0 run midway through the period that put the Hornets up 23-6 by the 9:25 mark.

Guyant-Holloway's club then finished the half by scoring 14 of the final 19 points to take the 24-point lead into the lockerroom.

The second half brought more of the same as Shenandoah was able to extend its advantage to more than 30 points on five different occasions.

Meredith completed the game on its best run of the afternoon, scoring 10 of the contest's final 12 points.

Alexis Hargbol just missed her second consecutive double-double; she had 13 points and nine rebounds while Edwards added 12 points and Mandy Johnston 11.

Kristen Stewart paced the hosts with 13 points.

The Hornets host Ferrum College Wednesday at 5:30.
