With just 7 players, Southern Miss women’s basketball advances to WNIT Super 16
SUMMARY: The Southern Miss women’s basketball team overcame various challenges, including a depleted roster and their coach’s physical fatigue, to beat Murray State 78-67 in overtime, advancing to the WNIT Super 16. The Golden Eagles trailed early but managed to secure a win with standout performances from players like Davis, who scored 33 points, setting a single-season record with 651 points, and Bracey, who contributed 25 points. The team’s 20th victory was marked by their resilience in a close game with numerous lead changes. Coach McNelis, reaching her 1000th career game, had to take a break during the third quarter but continued making decisions off-court. Southern Miss will next play an opponent determined after the Grambling State vs. Louisiana-Monroe game.
