Women's basketball saddled with first SLIAC loss
The women's basketball team suffered their first SLIAC loss in their game at Westminster on Wednesday, falling 69-66 to the Blue Jays.

Greenville drew even closer by the end of the third quarter with a 48-47 deficit.

Emily Reinneck led Greenville's scoring attack with 18 points as one of four starters reaching double figures.

The Reinneck sisters each had a team-high six rebounds, and Cantrill led GU with four assists.

The Panthers (11-5, 4-1 SLIAC) travel to Blackburn for a game on Saturday at 1 p.m.
