Frostburg, Md. – Davis & Elkins Women's Basketball drop its regular season opener to Shepherd University in the Jim Crawley Conference Challenge held on the campus of Frostburg State University.

The Senators had two players score in double-digits in Friday's season opener. Allie Taylor scored twelve, while had Dream Cherry thirteen.

D&E fought hard in the first half and were shooting very well. They shot 52.4% in the first half from the field and 55.6% from three. This was significantly better than Shepherd's 40.5% from the field and 22.2% from beyond the arch. Unfortunately, the Senators couldn't make the comeback in the second half.

They look to bounce back and get even in the win-loss column today to wrap up their weekend in Frostburg in a matchup with Pitt-Johnstown.
