Women’s Basketball falls at No. 19 Randolph-Macon

ASHLAND, Va. – The Salisbury University women's basketball program fell 67-50 on the road against No. 19 Randolph-Macon Thursday night inside Crenshaw Gym.

The Sea Gulls (10-12) got out to a quick start thanks to sophomore Abby Plaugher who scored the first two baskets for SU earning an early lead. The back-and-forth first quarter saw seven lead changes before the Yellow Jackets (21-1) ended the quarter on a 10-4 run earning a 21-15 advantage heading into the second quarter of action.

Both offenses struggled to get going in the second quarter scoring only 20 points combined. Salisbury shot 25 percent from the floor in the quarter while Randolph-Macon posted a 27 percent shooting percentage. The Sea Gulls trailed by 10 at the halftime break.

Randolph-Macon opened the game up in the third quarter outscoring SU 21-9. The offensive struggles continued for the Sea Gulls as they shot 17 percent from the floor while the Yellow Jackets shot 63 percent.

The 22-point defect was too much for SU to overcome in the fourth. Plaugher ended with a game-high 20 points while also adding five rebounds.
