COLUMBIA, Mo. -- Jeremiah Tilmon posted 10 points and 12 rebounds -- his second double-double this season -- to lead Missouri to a 65-45 victory over UT Arlington on Tuesday night.
The 6-foot-10 Tilmon took advantage of an undersized UTA frontcourt. The tallest players in the Mavericks' starting lineup -- Andres Ibarguen and Patrick Mwamba -- are each 6-foot-5. The sophomore forward has been heating up, and has now scored double-digits in each of his last three contests.
Tilmon also shot 6-for-6 from the free-throw line. He shot just 52 percent from the charity stripe last year, but has upped that percentage to 80 percent this season.
