LEXINGTON, Va. -- Marymount women's basketball hit the court after the break on the road, taking on #6 Washington & Lee down in the valley.

Falling by the nationally-touted Generals, 70-44, the Saints drop to 2-7 on the season.

NOTABLE

• Kelly Ceroll had a big day, narrowly missing a double-double with 10 points and eight rebounds to her credit, adding an assist and a block.
• Kaylah Barr had eight points with four rebounds and an assist.
• Ava Achtyl added six points on the afternoon, going 3 of 5 from the field.
• Samatha Bulik pulled down five boards alongside her four points.
• Cara Vollmer had six with a steal.

HOW IT HAPPENED

• The Generals got on the board first to start off the Sunday affair, but Achtyl answered with a drivin layup to get the Saints offense moving.
• Down 15-9 with just under four minutes to go in the first quarter, Vollmer dropped a three to cut into the W&L lead.
• The Saints held close down the stretch of the first quarter, sending the teams to the benches down by just five.
• Back-to-back jumpers inside of the line from Barr to start to second quarter put MU within one, with Ella Morrison drawing a foul and dropping a free throw to even up the tally.
• Ceroll put a tip-in layup in the basket to end the scoring for Marymount in the first half, down just 29-24.
• The Generals came out of the locker room hot, ultimately holding the Saints at bay the third and fourth quarters to take the match up.

UP NEXT

• Marymount will head just north to Salisbury University looking to bounce back, taking on the Sea Gulls next Saturday, Dec. 7 at 1 PM.
