She also tied teammate Alyssa Griner for a game-high nine rebounds. Denison went 5-for-8 from long range and tallied 20 points. Griner added a dozen points and Graci Semtimphelter scored 10 to round out the Ohio Wesleyan double-digit scorers.<\/span><br \/><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-7de652ef-7fff-78f5-ca22-df9b518f2073\"><br \/>Kenyon struggled both offensively and in transition against a pesky Battling Bishops defense. No Kenyon player reached a double-digit scoring output.

The Owls got off to a good start, taking early leads of 4-0 and 8-2, but when Ohio Wesleyan switched to a full-court press, things began to unravel for Kenyon. The Owls had five turnovers in the final five minutes of the first quarter, making way for the Battling Bishops to end the frame with an 18-11 advantage.<\/span><br \/><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-7de652ef-7fff-78f5-ca22-df9b518f2073\"><br \/>The Battling Bishops didn&#8217;t let up in the second quarter.

The Owls, who shot 34.8 percent for the game, managed just one field goal in 10 tries during the third quarter.<\/span><br \/><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-7de652ef-7fff-78f5-ca22-df9b518f2073\"><br \/>Kenyon will regroup and move on to play Hiram College next.
