ELKINS, W.Va. – The Davis & Elkins College women's basketball team put up a strong second-half effort but fell short against Frostburg State, 69-54, on Wednesday night at the McDonnell Center.

The Senators (2-23, 1-18 MEC) struggled early, managing just 19 points in the first half as Frostburg State (18-9, 12-7 MEC) built a comfortable lead. The Bobcats took control with a strong defensive presence, forcing 16 turnovers and capitalizing on fast-break opportunities.
