COLUMBUS, Ohio -- The Ohio Dominican women's basketball team returns to action on Tuesday evening battling Saginaw Valley State University inside of Alumni Hall. It's the first time both teams have met in competition since 2019. ODU looks to bounce back following back-to-back losses against the University of Southern Indiana and Lake Superior State University during last weekend's 2021 Midwest Region Crossover hosted by Cedarville University.
Senior Bailey Williams (Dublin, Ohio) shined during the opening weekend, tallying a career-high 17 points and claiming back-to-back double-doubles for the first time in her career. Guard Kennedy Schlabach (Millersburg, Ohio) also impressed scoring 16 and 17 points respectively. The fourth-year guard converted five three-point attempts, a season-high, during Saturday's game against Lake Superior State.
Second-year guard Camryn Pickerill (Seaman, Ohio) grabbed a career high five rebounds in 28 minutes of action as she contributed meaningful minutes off the bench for head coach Lynsey Warren.
