It's never explained, I can only guess it was because Yang was the strongest fighter on the team (save for Qrow obviously). I was hoping they actually some sort of plan in sending her alone, because she would've been annihilated facing all three of them (Cinder, Raven, and Vernal) alone. Yes, it was imperative to stop them from seizing the Relic, but sending Yang down there without some sort of plan could've backfired horribly. They can't always rely on luck to get through these tough battles, or it'll seriously cost them one day, even more than losing Pyrrha and nearly losing Yang at the Battle of Beacon.
