GREENSBORO, N.C. (2/14/10) – Senior Jasmine Wood's free throw with 8.7 seconds left in overtime gave Guilford College a 56-55 Old Dominion Athletic Conference (ODAC) basketball win over Eastern Mennonite University Sunday.

The Quakers' (13-9, 10-7 ODAC) fourth straight victory earned their first sweep of the season series with the Royals (15-7, 11-7 ODAC) since 2004-05.

The defensive contest featured three ties, five lead changes and both teams shooting less than 32 percent from the floor. Guilford led for most of the contest, but never by more than nine points in the early moments of the second half. Eastern Mennonite gradually worked its deficit down and took a 46-45 lead on Danielle Rittenhouse's three-pointer with 3:31 left in regulation.

Jazlyn Gibbs' three-pointer with 1:58 remaining in the second half gave Guilford a 48-46 edge that grew to four points on two Wood free throws with 57 seconds remaining. Eastern Mennonite rallied with a Brittany Snyder basket followed by Ebony Dennis'game-tying jumper with 16 seconds remaining to force overtime.

The extra frame saw the teams combine for just two field goals and seven turnovers. Ann Seufer's bucket with 3:15 left opened the scoring and gave Guilford a 54-52 lead. A Wood free throw with 2:22 remaining in overtime made it a three-point game, but the Royals tied it on Marla Young's three-pointer with 1:26 remaining.

The teams traded turnovers before Wood drove the lane and was fouled. She made the second of two free throws for a 56-55 Quakers' lead. After a timeout, Eastern Mennonite's Melissa Lewis tried a similar move, but lost the ball in a crowd as the final horn sounded.

Seufer and Gibbs shared game-high scoring honors with 16 points apiece and both added a team-high seven rebounds. Seufer, one of four Quakers' seniors playing their final home game, became Guilford's 15th member of the 1,000-career points club with her overtime basket. Wood contributed nine points and three assists.

Snyder paced Eastern Mennonite with 11 points off the bench, followed by Rittenhouse's 10 points. Rookie Sara Lamneck scored four points, made three steals and grabbed a game-high 14 rebounds before fouling out.

The Quakers return to action Tuesday (2/16) at Randolph College at 7:00 p.m.
