ATLANTA, Ga. - Agnes Scott held close with Oglethorpe (3-2) through most of the first half, before an 18-0 run that spanned the end of the 2nd quarter and beginning of the 3rd quarter doomed the Scotties' chances. Oglethorpe would go on to win the contest, 88-63. The Scotties (0-4) continued to show improvement this season in the loss, having dropped an 84-49 loss to the Stormy Petrels a season ago. 

In the first quarter, little separated the two teams, as the Stormy Petrels only held an 18-17 edge after 10 minutes of play. The second quarter remained tight, as the Scotties trailed, 32-27, before the home team went on a 15-0 run to end the half and help put the game at a distance for the Scotties, entering the half with a 47-27 lead. The Scotties would keep the next two quarters close, as the second half went in favor of Oglethorpe by a narrow margin (41-36).

Laila Williams continued her strong start to the season, leading the Scotties with 18 points. The sophomore currently leads the Scotties in scoring, averaging 16.8 points per contest. Freshmen standouts Anissa Brailsford and Ryley Jolly also had strong outings on the evening, contributing 12 and 14 points, respectively. Jolly also contributed 6 rebounds and 3 steals. Brailsford's performance was especially impressive, given that she was limited to 13 minutes of action with foul trouble, fouling out of the contest in the 4th quarter.

The Scotties continue their non-conference season with a trip this weekend to Hollins University to take part in the Hollins Empowerment Classic. The Scotties will face off with Hollins (2-0) on Friday, November 22 at 7:00 p.m. before facing off with former GSAC and USA South foe, Salem College (0-2).
