Lady Bears secure perfect Valley record with sweep of Evansville

The Missouri State Lady Bears completed a perfected campaign in the Missouri Valley Conference this past weekend following back-to-back victories over the Evansville Purple Aces.

The sweep concluded the Lady Bears’ regular season where they finished 20-2 overall, including a flawless 16-0 record in MVC play, the first time in school history that feat has been achieved.

MSU was without head coach Amaka Agugua-Hamilton for the series due to a minor back injury. Assistant coach C.J. Jones led the helm in her absence.

In game one of the series, the Lady Bears were dominant on the boards, finishing with a plus-28 rebound advantage, the final score 87-54.
