No. 6 Guilford Defeats Men's Basketball

GREENSBORO, N.C. - The Shenandoah University men's basketball team lost to No. 6 Guilford College 67-56 on Saturday afternoon in a road ODAC game.

The Hornets (15-7, 6-7 ODAC) led by five at one point in the first half and only trailed by four at the break, but the Quakers (20-2, 11-2) outscored SU 32-25 in the second and went on a late 7-0 run to put the game out of reach.
