SAN ANTONIO (AP) — Missouri State is going to its second Sweet 16 in a row in the women’s NCAA Tournament.
Elle Ruffridge had 20 points with five 3-pointers and Jasmine Franklin had a double-double as the Lady Bears knocked off Wright State 64-39 in a matchup of mid-major teams.
The Lady Bears now advance to play Stanford, the No. 1 overall seed in this NCAA Tournament.
That is the same matchup as in the Sweet 16 two years ago.
Angel Baker and Shamarre Hale each had 10 points for the 13th-seeded Raiders.
