Mizzou Quote of the Day

"Defense is so important and it's a mindset, it's a toughness, it's a grittiness. I feel like there's been stretches, whether it's a three minute stretch, six possession stretch, where we just get deflated when things aren't really going for us well on the offensive end or whether it's a turnover or miss shot in the ability to to recalibrate and get back in the saddle and find a way to create some things on the defensive end." 

-Missouri Women's Basketball Head Coach Robin Pingeton after the Tigers loss on Sunday.
