GREENSBORO, N.C. — Brittany Atwater shared game-high points honors in Guilford’s 56-42 Old Dominion Athletic Conference (ODAC) win over visiting Emory & Henry College Wednesday in the Ragan-Brown Field House. The win marked head coach Stephanie Flamini’s 200th career win.

The Quakers entered the locker room only ahead 25-22. Guilford opened the second on an 11-3 run which sealed the deal against the younger Wasps.
