Ole Miss basketball is officially back in Oxford on Tuesday night as the women’s basketball team tips off its regular season against Norfolk State. The Rebels are looking to open their season with a notch in the win column as well as improve upon a disappointing 2017-2018 campaign that ended with a 12-19 overall record and a dismal 1-15 last-place finish in the SEC.
Norfolk State, on the other hand, is hoping to build off of its 18-11 record last season. They return three of their top four scorers from last year, including sharpshooter Alexys Long, who led her conference in three-point shooting percentage while averaging 10 points per game.
