NORMAL – After two highly competitive regular season games won by the visitors, the Illinois State and Missouri State women’s basketball teams are destined for top four finishes in the Missouri Valley Conference.
That could mean a third matchup in the semifinals or finals of the MVC Tournament in Moline in March.
After Missouri State topped ISU 75-69 Friday at Redbird Arena, neither coach was shying away from another meeting.
“I just hope we get to see them again in Moline,” said ISU coach Kristen Gillespie.
Missouri State coach Amaka Agugua-Hamilton took it a bit further.
