W&L Women’s Basketball Downed At Lynchburg, 63-37

LYNCHBURG, Va. -- The Washington and Lee women's basketball team connected on just 21.4 percent of its shots (12-of-56) and was defeated, 63-37, by Lynchburg on Wednesday evening in Lynchburg, Va.

The Hornets (13-8, 11-5 ODAC) used a 9-2 run over the final 2:34 of the first half to take a 26-16 lead at halftime. They then outscored W&L 37-21 in the second half to cruise to the victory.

LC was led by senior center Erika Whitten's game-high 19 points and three blocks. Junior guard Abby Pyzik notched 10 points, eight rebounds and seven assists.

Freshman guard Louisa Feve (Bethesda, Md./Winston Churchill) led the W&L (3-18, 3-15 ODAC) offense with 18 points, including 4-of-6 shooting from downtown. Her four threes give her 30 on the season, eclipsing the previous W&L single-season mark of 29 which was established by junior forward Sarah Michaels (Norfolk, Va./Norfolk Academy) in the 2000-01 season.

The Generals will be in action again on Monday when they travel to Mary Washington for a non-conference game with a scheduled tip-off time of 7:00 pm.
