MEMPHIS, Tenn.– The Memphis women's basketball team face a tough challenge this week as they host the Bearcats of Cincinnati on Wednesday night before heading south to take on the Knights of UCF.
The Tigers (12-6, 3-4 AAC) got a big AAC win this past Saturday when they handed Temple their second conference loss of the season behind 18 points from Madison Griggs, 12 of which she scored in the final 10 minutes of play, and another 17 points from senior Jamirah Shutes. After finding themselves down by as much as 10 early in the first quarter, the Tigers would rally back to take the lead and, eventually, claim the 64-61 win.
