At the free-throw line, the team converted 68.4% (13-for-19) of their attempts. Shenandoah's defense limited Ferrum to 32.7% (16-for-49) shooting from the floor, 40% (8-for-20) from three, and just six free-throw attempts, of which they made four.

HOW IT HAPPENED

The Hornets opened the game strong, scoring on their first possession as Shawnise Campbell converted on an assist from Terese Greene. However, Ferrum responded with a 10-0 run, capitalizing on Shenandoah's early turnovers and missed shots. Emily Williams ended the Hornets' scoring drought with a jumper off an assist from Skai Bayless. Despite Ferrum's hot start, Shenandoah closed the quarter on an 8-0 run, with key baskets from Greene and Addisyn Banks, cutting the Panthers' lead to 13-12.

Early in the second quarter, Greene gave Shenandoah its first lead of the game with a layup. Both teams struggled from deep, missing their next five attempts before Banks' layup made it 16-13 in favor of the Hornets. Ferrum reclaimed the lead with consecutive jumpers and a three-pointer, but Shenandoah ended the half on an 8-2 run, sparked by free throws and layups from Kimble and Greene, taking a 24-22 lead into halftime.

The Hornets carried their momentum into the second half, starting with an 8-2 run. After allowing a jumper on Ferrum's opening possession, Shenandoah's defense held the Panthers scoreless until the six-minute mark. Both teams traded three-pointers before Jessica Littlejohn's give-and-go with Emily Williams extended the Hornets' lead to 41-32 late in the third quarter. Williams closed out the quarter with back-to-back baskets, giving Shenandoah a 45-37 advantage heading into the final period.

In the fourth quarter, Shenandoah extended its lead with a 5-0 run, featuring contributions from Gabby Krystofiak and Williams, along with a free throw by Greene. Despite a brief surge from Ferrum, including a late three-pointer, the Hornets' defense allowed just two free throws for the remainder of the game. Krystofiak capped off Shenandoah's scoring with a late basket, and Greene and Williams sealed the win with clutch free throws.
