ASHLAND, Va. - The sixth-ranked Washington and Lee University women's basketball team secured their 15th-straight win, the longest winning streak in program history, in a 72-54 rout of Randolph-Macon College on Saturday in Ashland.

HOW IT HAPPENED

Sarah Zimmerman opened the scoring with a layup, but Randolph-Macon (10-5, 4-2 ODAC) built a four-point advantage a few minutes later after Sam Smith knocked down back-to-back three-pointers. The Generals (15-0, 6-0 ODAC) responded to take a 12-10 lead after Caroline Shimp converted a pair of free throws. Another triple from Smith put the Yellow Jackets back in front by three before Zou Raine answered with a layup at the buzzer, sending RMC into the second quarter with a one-point edge.
The Yellow Jackets maintained a three-point lead early in the second quarter as Liz Wyrick tipped in a missed layup. Both teams traded baskets before Megan Zimmerman buried a three-pointer to tie the game at 28. The Blue and White then took control, building an eight-point lead as Icy Keneah and Sam Collins knocked down jumpers. Emoin Byers scored with 39 seconds remaining to send W&L into halftime with a 38-32 lead.
W&L extended its advantage to 11 points coming out of the break as Zou Raine connected on a jumper and Sarah Zimmerman followed with a three-pointer. Back-to-back layups from Quinn McGuinness and Raine pushed the Generals' lead to 47-34 with seven minutes remaining in the third quarter. The teams traded baskets as W&L maintained a double-digit lead until Randolph-Macon used a 6-0 run to cut the margin to seven. Mary Schleusner answered with a bucket before Erin Porter converted a jumper, sending the Generals into the fourth quarter with a 55-48 lead.
McKenzie Matheny opened the final period with a layup to trim the W&L lead to five, but the Generals responded with seven straight points from Schleusner and Sarah Zimmerman to rebuild a 12-point advantage.
