The Ole Miss women's basketball team recovered from a 15-point first-half deficit to take a fourth-quarter lead Thursday night in the opening round of the WNIT, but the Rebels were unable to complete the comeback and beat Grambling at The Pavilion at Ole Miss.
Senior Taylor Manuel turned in a career game in what proved to be her final contest as a Rebel, tallying 28 points and eight rebounds. Junior Shandricka Sessom turned it on in the second half and flirted with a double-double at 18 points and nine rebounds.
Seniors Erika Sisk and Shequila Joseph also had solid outputs in their final outings in Ole Miss uniforms, tallying five points apiece to go along with nine dimes by Sisk and 11 boards for Joseph.
