She drained consecutive three-pointers to give Guilford a 63-46 lead with 4:49 left and put the game out of reach.

Hill added 10 boards to her 14 points for her second double-double in three games and the fourth of her career. King grabbed a career-high nine caroms and a team-high three assists. Sophomore guard Kristyn Casey (Jupiter, FL/Benjamin School) scored a personal-best eight points for the Quakers.
Hollins sophomore Brandi Cochran (Hillsville, VA/Carroll County), who started the weekend as the ODAC's top scorer, netted a game-high 16 points and made three steals. Freshman guard Coby Wilmer (Buena Vista, VA/Parry McCluer) added 11 points and sophomore center Katie Parnell (Lynchburg, VA/Holy Cross) posted a double-double with 10 points and 10 rebounds despite early foul trouble.
