Blazer Women Trounce Wilson, 81-45

FREDERICK, Md.--Freshman Jennifer Willison and sophomore Whitney Schultheis each netted career-highs to power the Hood College women's basketball team to a decisive 81-45 victory over the Wilson College Phoenix Sunday in an Atlantic Women's Colleges Conference game at Gambrill Gymnasium.

The Blazers (4-16, 3-5 AWCC) won their 14th straight over Wilson (2-19, 0-8 AWCC) dating back to 2001.

Hood scored the first 14 points of the contest and held Wilson scoreless from the floor for the first 7:16. The Blazers led by as many as 29 in the first stanza and took a 46-22 lead into the break.

Hood continued to pour it on in the second half and finished with a season-high 81 points, the highest single-game output since Jan. 30, 2006.

Willison registered a career-high 25 points on 9-of-16 from the floor to go along with eight rebounds and three steals. Schultheis also tallied a career-high 16 points and picked off six steals. Freshman Sara Hartlaub contributed 12 points and blocked six shots, matching her career-high, while senior Dana Shook chipped in eight points and dished out a career-best 11 assists.

The Blazers will host AWCC rival Trinity University (D.C.) in their regular season home finale Tuesday at 7 p.m. Hood will also honor its two seniors, Tamara Maggard and Dana Shook for their contributions to the program before the game.
