In a game that started with so much promise for Mizzou women’s basketball ended with promise having left the building by the end of the third quarter.
After keeping up with the seventh-ranked and defending national champion LSU Tigers in the first half, LSU dominated the third quarter en route to a 92-72 victory. The win moves LSU to 14-1, while the loss drops Mizzou to 9-5.
Both teams came out of the gates firing on offense. LSU continuously worked the ball inside, while Mizzou answered with confident shots from the outside. Ashton Judd, Hayley Frank and Grace Slaughter each knocked down a three, as the road Tigers trailed the home Tigers 12-11 at the first media timeout.
