CHESTERTOWN, MD – Host Washington College scored 27 points off 21 Haverford College turnovers en route to a 61-45 Centennial Conference women's basketball victory tonight in Cain Athletic Center. The Shorewomen improved to 9-11 overall and 6-7 in conference play with the win, while the Fords fell to 3-17 and 0-14.

The Shorewomen used a 16-3 run during the first half to open up a 38-25 lead at halftime. Washington shot 54% from the field during the first 20 minutes. Washington led by at least 12 and by as many as 21 points during the second half.
