The Lady Bears were 5-4 before the break and went 4-3 during the break. They also started Missouri Valley Conference play and started by winning the first two on the road against Illinois State and Indiana State. However, they have dropped their last two games against Drake and Northern Iowa at JQH Arena, where they are 3-4 on the season.
For the week of Dec. 28 to Jan. 3, senior guard Tyonna Snow nabbed her second MVC Player of the Week this season. Snow stuffed the stat sheet in the two games the Lady Bears played that week.
