Both died when they were ejected from the pickup they were riding in.
Police have identified the driver as 45- year old Terry Cabell, the mother of Leslie Cole.
Investigators say Cabell was traveling East on Rock Road in Radford when she apparently lost control and swerved into the path of a Ford van.
Right now, police say Cabell and a male passenger maintain that both girls were riding in the cab.
But investigators are waiting on the medical examiner's office to confirm that information.
In the meantime, teachers and classmates at Radford's John N- Dalton Intermediate School are coping with the loss of two students.

Barney the Purple Dinosaur has gotten tangled up in a federal drug case.
The story is actually about a roving con artist who used more than a dozen aliases to rip off banks, credit unions and stores in and around Wytheville.
When Janice Wright Chisum got busted buying two grams of methamphetamine, she agreed to take police along when she delivers the drug to its ultimate buyer.
Police are ready for the deal to go down --when Barney drives up. He ends up cuffed, face down on the pavement being read his rights... er: HER rights.
It was actually 30-year old Lisa Ann Walters of Wytheville wearing a Barney costume.
The charge against Walters was ultimately dismissed in state court.
But Chisum pled guilty in federal court today to ten counts involving counterfeiting, forgery, guns and drugs.
