COLUMBIA, Mo. - Tulane women's basketball (0-2, 0-0 AAC) fell to Missouri (2-2, 0-0 SEC) in its first road game on Tuesday night, 60-52, at the Mizzou Arena.
The Wave led at the half, 37-30, but struggled to keep the momentum in the second half, with Missouri outscoring Tulane 30-15 in the final two quarters. Despite a strong start, Tulane's offense fell off significantly, shooting just 4-of-20 from the field in the second half.
Missouri defeated Tulane with a strong performance from Grace Slaughter, who finished as the game's top scorer with 22 points. She shot 8-of-12 from the field, including 3-of-4 from three-point range, and 3-for-3 from the free-throw line. The Tigers' shooting, especially from beyond the arc, helped them secure the win.
Sherese Pittman led the Wave for the second consecutive game, scoring 18 points on 7-of-11 shooting and 4-of-5 from the free-throw line, along with three rebounds. Amira Mabry contributed nine points and seven rebounds, while Victoria Keenan added eight points. Dyllan Hanna led the team in rebounds with six off the bench.
