The Ole Miss Women’s Basketball team topped the Florida Gators Sunday afternoon 76-66 in The Pavilion, marking the first time since February 2017 that the Rebels have strung together back-to-back SEC wins.
After a big win at No. 16 Kentucky last Sunday, head coach Yolett McPhee-McCuin and the Rebels had a week to prepare for a home matchup against a struggling Florida team who, despite upsetting Missouri their last time out, rolled into Oxford with a dismal 5-12 (1-3) record.
Ole Miss jumped out to an early 22-13 lead over the Gators behind the sharpshooting of Shandrika Sessom who buried her first three shots from behind the arc in the first quarter.
