Bridgewater Rallies Past Women

Hornets Fall, 52-44

BRIDGEWATER, Va. - Host Bridgewater College rallied for a 52-44 ODAC women's basketball victory over Shenandoah University Wednesday afternoon at Nininger Hall.

The Eagles (9-2, 4-1 ODAC) made up a six-point deficit to start the fourth quarter to steal the win over Shenandoah (8-4, 4-2).

IN BRIEF
SU took its largest lead, eight points, on a Maggie Rooklin fastbreak layup with 14 seconds remaining in the third, but this would prove to be the Hornets high-water mark of the evening.

Shenandoah gave up the final points of the third on a layup with four seconds left and then saw Bridgewater score all 14 of the game's fourth quarter points to earn the comeback victory. SU, which had shot 43 percent (17 of 40) over the first 30 minutes of the game, missed all 15 attempts from the field in the final stanza and was unable to get to the line.

Despite the cold shooting, the Hornets were still in a one-possession game until the final minute. Trailing by one, 45-44, SU gave up a baseline layup with 57 seconds remaining and then turned the ball over on the ensuing trip down the floor.

Now forced to foul, the Hornets saw Bridgewater hit 5 of 7 attempts from the line, including its first four attempts, to ice the victory.

Shenandoah ended up shooting 31 percent (17 of 55) for the game and had 39 rebounds. The Eagles shot 33 percent (20 of 61) and pulled down 42 boards.

Terese Greene had a game-high 14 points for the visitors.

UP NEXT
The Hornets continue this road swing with a 2 p.m. ODAC contest at Guilford College Saturday afternoon.
