The Missouri State Lady Bears and head coach Amaka “Mox” Agugua-Hamilton have been open about their team goals this season.
One of the big goals heading into the year was getting off to a fast start in nonconference play.
Check.
The Lady Bears went 10-2 in nonconference play with their only losses coming against No. 6 Oregon and No. 16 Gonzaga.
Another team goal is to go undefeated at JQH Arena this season.
Mission accomplished so far.
Missouri State is off to a perfect 8-0 start at home.
Perhaps the loftiest goal the Lady Bears have set is to host an NCAA Tournament game at JQH Arena and their resume suggests they have a strong chance of making that happen.
