The Oglethorpe University women's basketball team lost to Maryville College on Pinholster Court on Monday night, 90-79. Cold shooting (38%) felled the Petrels on this evening and, despite holding a two point advantage at halftime, Oglethorpe could not slow down the Scots in the second half.

Typically deadly from the outside, Oglethorpe only connected on 9 of 36 (25%) three-point attempts on a night when Maryville fed their post players the basketball and managed to shoot 46% from the field and 43% from behind the three point line. The Petrels managed to do a great job on the offensive boards (11 in the game) but their cold shooting kept the team from rallying for the win.
 
Oglethorpe was paced by the solid play of freshman Mareva Bone who recorded a team-high 17 points, 6 rebounds and two assists against zero turnovers. Fellow freshman Kaci Palmore posted her second consecutive double-double by notching 12 points and grabbing 13 rebounds.
 
Senior Taymah Jones posted 14 points and four rebounds and freshman Riley Cerone rounded out the Petrels in double figures with 11 points on the night.
 
With the loss Oglethorpe is now 1-1 on the season and will get set to travel to Florence, Kentucky for a Thanksgiving Tournament with games slated against Manchester and Thomas More college for Saturday and Sunday.
