CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (WTXL) - The Florida State women lost their fourth game in a row to Virginia and third-straight this season, 85-68 Sunday afternoon in Charlottesville.

The Noles were done in by a hot-shooting Cavaliers squad. UVA hit eight of 11 three-point attempts in the first half and went 10-19 beyond the arc for the game. Faith Randolph led the home Cavs off the bench with a career high 26 points, as Virginia held the lead from the 17:45 mark of the 1st half until the final whistle.

For FSU, sophomore guard Emiah Bingley led the team with 21 points. Natasha Howard chipped in 15 and Kai James scored 11, but the Seminoles' offensive output was not enough to overcome 27 turnovers.

Florida State returns to the Tucker Center for their next two games, starting with a matchup against No. 3 Duke Thursday, January 23. Tip-off is scheduled for 7:00 p.m.
