Women's Basketball Falls to Liberty in Opener

NORFOLK, Va. -- In the first game under first-year head coach Nikki McCray-Penson, the Old Dominion women's basketball team fell to Liberty, 63-55, in the opening round of the Preseason WNIT on Friday afternoon at the Ted Constant Center.

Odegua Oigbokie scored a team-high 14 points, one shy of her career high, and Ashley Jackson added seven points and a career-high eight assists, but a strong start by Liberty (1-0) proved to be too much for Old Dominion (0-1) to overcome in the 2017-18 season opener.

"I thought in the first half we played at Liberty's tempo," said McCray.
