After falling to the class of the CAA, the Old Dominion women's basketball team believes it can play with the best and beat all the rest. That's the message the Lady Monarchs preached Thursday night after a 76-63 loss at No. 12 Delaware, a reasonable road effort for the Lady Monarchs given the Blue Hens' dominance this season. http://hamptonroads.com/2012/02/lady-monarchs-leave-delaware-loss-gain-confidence Thu, 09 Feb 2012 23:52:14 -0500 HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. Jackie Cook’s layup with 2.7 seconds to play Sunday afternoon lifted Old Dominion to a 81-79 victory over Hofstra in a CAA women’s basketball game at the Mack Sports Complex. As time wound down, Ashley Betz-White drove the lane and passed to Cook, who banked in the game-winner. http://hamptonroads.com/2012/02/cook-delivers-lady-monarchs Sun, 05 Feb 2012 20:44:10 -0500 DOVER, Del.

Old Dominion held a 14-point lead three minutes into the second half, Tia Lewis was having her way near the basket and James Madison looked like a team trying to force a basketball into a teacup. And then the basket opened, and JMU ran off a 16-2 streak. http://hamptonroads.com/2012/02/odu-women-lose-james-madison-5755 Wed, 01 Feb 2012 23:38:31 -0500 NORFOLK The Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference men's and women's basketball tournaments will come to Norfolk for at least the next three years, officials will announce at a news conference Thursday morning at Scope. http://hamptonroads.com/2012/02/norfolk-lures-meac-hoop-tournaments Wed, 01 Feb 2012 00:44:23 -0500 Old Dominion's Ashley Betz-White was named CAA Rookie of the Week in women's basketball for the fourth time this season.

Most importantly, she gave the Lady Monarchs a badly needed win Sunday - a 71-68 victory over George Mason as ODU (7-14, 4-5) embarks on a stretch of six games against the six top teams in the CAA. http://hamptonroads.com/2012/01/odu-enters-difficult-stretch-topping-george-mason Sun, 29 Jan 2012 22:26:11 -0500 NORFOLK The Norfolk State women's basketball team fell 75-68 to visiting Morgan State at Echols Hall in a Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference contest Saturday afternoon.
