NORFOLK, Va. -- Jennie Simms and Destinee Young each notched double-doubles to lead Old Dominion over Norfolk State, 65-54, in the season opener on Friday night at the Ted Constant Center.
"It was a great game tonight," said head coach Karen Barefoot. "Norfolk State challenged us. They had great energy and I think Coach Larry [Vickers] is doing a great job with them. We were able to really respond positively after halftime and we had great leadership from our seniors, especially Jennie [Simms] and Destinee [Young]. We got ourselves back and were able to get into a groove.
