Sophie Cunningham’s regular-season career at MU ended similarly to how it began: with a dominant performance in her hometown.
Cunningham scored a game-high 22 points in Missouri’s 82-47 win over Alabama to close out the regular season. The Tigers (21-9, 10-6 SEC) are the No. 5 seed in the SEC Tournament, which starts on Wednesday in Greenville, S.C. MU will play on Thursday, against either Ole Miss or Florida.
Snow on Sunday morning kept Cunningham’s final home game from being a packed house — only 6,527 fans showed up to watch the hometown hero play her final game in an MU uniform.
