Missouri Overcomes First Half Struggles, Defeats Vanderbilt On The Road

Missouri is back in the win column after defeating Vanderbilt in Nashville 66-52. The Tigers desperately needed a win after their recent three game slide against no. 13 Georgia on Monday, no. 11 LSU in OT last Thursday, and Arkansas the game before that.

This game didn’t start with all sunshines and rainbows for the Tigers, however. Mizzou struggled to get things rolling on offense after Hayley Frank hit a layup 54 seconds into the game. After that, it took Mizzou until the 5:03 mark in the first quarter to hit another bucket, a three courtesy of…you guessed it…Frank.
