Mizzou’s 2021-2022 season came to a close in an 83-78 loss in overtime to the Drake Bulldogs in the first round of the WNIT. After starting the game on a 10-0 run, Mizzou couldn’t get their grip back on the Bulldogs. A flip switched and Mizzou couldn’t recover.
The Tigers were an ice cold 36% from three and 68.4% from the charity stripe. They allowed Drake to light it up from three, converting 38.2%. Paint defense was good until they allowed for wide-open or lightly contested layups.
You can’t look at this game just by the box score, however.
