Warriors' Slow Start Allows Petrels to Shoot Past Hendrix in Atlanta

ATLANTA, Ga. - For the second time in seven days, Hendrix (9-11, 2-7 SAA) took on Oglethorpe (15-4, 6-2 SAA) in a rematch of the 2018 Southern Athletic Association Championship Game and for the second time in seven days, it was the Petrels who got the best of the Warriors. Freshman guard Serena Pruitt tallied a career-high 16 points but it was not enough as Oglethorpe shot better than 38% from the floor and 40% from deep for the game en route to a 72-37 victory over Hendrix Sunday in Atlanta, Ga.

- After Pruitt brought the deficit within 10, Oglethorpe sustained a 12-0 run to take a 31-9 lead with 3:52 til half; Petrels led 34-17 at the break.
- Pruitt (six) and freshman guard Macy Moody (five) combined to score all 11 of Hendrix's points in the third period as Oglethorpe took a 57-28 lead into the fourth quarter.
- Moody, senior forward Maddie Anderson, sophomore forward Kessie Jenkins and freshman guard Rachel Woppman combined to shoot 7-for-8 at the free throw line in the fourth quarter but it was not enough as Oglethorpe pulled out the 72-37 victory Sunday.

OF NOTE
- Pruitt shot 7-of-13 from the floor in 20 minutes before fouling out; one of two Warriors to reach double figures Sunday against the Petrels and the lone Warrior to score more than three baskets.

- The total points scored (37), field goals made (11) and total assists (two) are all season lows for the Warriors while the three made three-point baskets tie the season low for three-pointers made in a game (vs Millsaps & vs Southwestern TX)).
