Coming off the Sophie Cunningham era, Mizzou women’s basketball was always likely to take a step back as the unofficial Mayor of Columbia headed for the WNBA. I don’t think anyone envisioned the steep collapse which happened in 2019-20 when the Mizzou women went 9-22 and won just 5 conference games.
Last year, the win total stayed the same — even in conference play — but the COVID shortened season saw them play in 9 fewer games overall and two fewer games in conference. But the ladies lost 8 conference games by double digits two years ago, and this past season just two of their losses came by double digits.
