The Royals improve to 10-2 with the win, including 4-0 in the Old Dominion Athletic Conference, as they remain the only unbeaten team in the conference.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #444444\">The two teams went back and forth with each other for most of the first, with Hollins still holding a 24-22 lead with 4:30 to go in the frame. Eastern Mennonite then owned the final minutes of the half, forcing four turnovers during the span and closing on a 14-2 tear. With a 36-26 lead at the break, the Royals were ready to roll in the second.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #444444\">EMU scored the first seven points after halftime to build up a 43-26 cushion and they never looked back. The closest they let Hollins the rest of the way was 14 points as the Royals out-scored their hosts 48-31 over the final 20 minutes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #444444\">Although shooting percentages were fairly close, Eastern Mennonite won the game on the glass and with defense. The women had 20 offensive rebounds and a 48-37 domination of the boards. They also picked out 13 steals and forced 22 Hollins turnovers for a +11 turnover margin.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #444444\"><strong><a style=\"color: #0079c2\" href=\"http:\/\/www.emuroyals.com\/sports\/wbkb\/2014-15\/bios\/rheinheimer_jess_rlra\">Jess Rheinheimer<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0(Manheim, Pa.\/Lancaster Mennonite) led the charge with 23 points, seven rebounds, three steals, two blocks and two assists.\u00a0<strong><a style=\"color: #0079c2\" href=\"http:\/\/www.emuroyals.com\/sports\/wbkb\/2014-15\/bios\/sykes_shakeerah_r0px\">Shakeerah Sykes<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0(Dumfries, Va.\/Forest Park) racked up her fifth double double of the year with 14 points, 14 rebounds and three steals.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #444444\"><strong><a style=\"color: #0079c2\" href=\"http:\/\/www.emuroyals.com\/sports\/wbkb\/2014-15\/bios\/zumfelde_marla_cgp4\">Marla zumFelde<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0(Goshen, Ind.\/Bethany Christian) hit four triples and finished with 12 points.\u00a0<strong><a style=\"color: #0079c2\" href=\"http:\/\/www.emuroyals.com\/sports\/wbkb\/2014-15\/bios\/brown_alisa_h3nu\">Alisa Brown<\/a><\/strong>(Dumfries, Va.\/Forest Park) had eight points, five assists and three steals.\u00a0<strong><a style=\"color: #0079c2\" href=\"http:\/\/www.emuroyals.com\/sports\/wbkb\/2014-15\/bios\/ygarza_alicia_k2lc\">Alicia Ygarza<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0(Conestoga, Pa.\/Penn Manor) did all the little things and came up with nine rebounds, five assists and four steals.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #444444\">Jewellanna Parfitt and Britney Campbell each scored 17 for Hollins.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #444444\">The Royals come back home to host Washington and Lee Tuesday night at 7 p.m. in Yoder Arena.
