Ohio Women’s Basketball outlasts Otterbein in Education Day Game

ATHENS, Ohio (WOUB) — Ohio Women’s Basketball kicked off their week with the annual Rufus Field Trip Game against the Division III Otterbein Cardinals. Ohio hosted over a dozen elementary and middle schools across Southeast Ohio and beyond with free admission as part of greater Education Day activities. After a slow start, Ohio pulled through to take the contest 68-44. The game offensively started out slow, with only three combined field goals being converted in the first three and a half minutes. Despite forcing turnovers, the Bobcats couldn’t make the threes they were hunting early in the first quarter. Otterbein capitalized early, giving Ohio a scare. A Kennedie Hill triple saw the Cardinals equalize at 9 before an Ann Waskiewicz fastbreak layup saw Otterbein take their first lead to end the first quarter.
