Well, they didn't get a thread started before this so I figured I would start one. The Women's Basketball Team started off their season with an exhibition match on October 22 against the Saints of Limestone. There wasn't a prayer left in the house for Limestone by the end of the night.
I don't have exact numbers and they are apparently not out there. From my recollection they outscored the Saints
27-7 in the first quarter with about 14 points coming in the last 2:30 of the quarter. Score at half was 51-17. I think the score at the end of the third was 71-30. The final score was 92-41.
Several Hokies scored in double figures and they did a lot of damage on the inside as opposed to raining threes from downtown. That said, Ekh did start off where she left off by hitting multiple 3's.
As a team, they desperately need to work on their free throws. I think only one Hokie hit both of their shots from the charity stripe.
That said, it was a good warmup before the season actually starts.

Thanks for sharing. I totally missed that this was happening.
The Saints of Limestone sounds like something that something else anagrams to.
Had to look up where Limestone college was, I felt like I had heard of it before. Did some digging and that's cause they used to have physical campus's in all of SC's major cities.
Other fun facts:
Total enrollment: 1,786
Location: Gaffney SC home of THE Peach
that is......something
That water tank has won multiple awards. It is something to see.
Driven by that countless times- it IS cool to see from the highway.
Nice, good stuff. I heard the VT men's team scrimmaged Liberty last week and got a close win.
I read that as a Rocky start and was like 51-7 isn't rocky
