WAYNESBURG, Pa. (Nov. 26) – The Waynesburg University women's basketball team played host to Otterbein for a non-Presidents' Athletic Conference (PAC) game on Tuesday. The Yellow Jackets fell by the final score of 84-56.
 
Senior guard Alli Delaney (Belmont, Ohio / Union Local) led the charge for Waynesburg (1-4) with 15 points over 26 minutes off the bench. She shot five-for-eight from the floor and knocked down four-of-seven attempts from three-point range.
 
Despite battling illness, sophomore center Brooke Fuller (Allison Park, Pa. / Hampton) put together a solid night, going for 13 points and five rebounds over just 17 minutes on the court. She shot 60 percent (six-for-10) from the field.
 
Freshman Zoie Smith (Berlin, Pa. / Berlin Brothersvalley) chipped in nine points and a game-high three blocks off the bench, while freshman point guard Anika Dansby (Massilon, Ohio / Washington) went for eight points, a squad-best four assists and three rebounds.
 
Otterbein (4-1) led 18-12 after the first quarter and nudged that lead up to 34-25 at halftime. The Jackets stayed within striking distance through three quarters, as the Cardinals led 48-36 going into the final period.
