Box Score

MACON, Ga. (Nov. 15, 2014) – Led by a career-high 15-point, 10-rebound double-double from Haley McDonough, the Sewanee women's basketball team opened its season with 74-59 win over host Wesleyan, Saturday.

Saturday also marked the first career win at Sewanee for first-year head coach Tom Campbell.

McDonough finished 5-of-18 from the field and also added five assists and three steals. Additionally, senior forward Kayla Sewell grabbed a career-high 17 rebounds, scored eight points, and finished with 10 assists.
