In this story:


The Ole Miss Rebels remain alive in the SEC Tournament after capturing a 73-57 win over the Auburn Tigers on Thursday with the program now heading to the quarterfinals round.

Christeen Iwuala was a dominant force for the Rebels (22-10, 8-8 SEC), scoring 18 points and a field-leading nine rebounds.

She made all eight of her shot attempts, making her the first Rebel since Madison Scott to shoot and make eight shots in a single game where Scott accomplished her feat on Dec. 5, 2021, against Cincinnati.

With the win over the Tigers (15-17, 3-13 SEC), the Rebels have advanced to six consecutive quarterfinal matchups in the SEC Tournament, dating to 2021.

The Rebels have now won against the Tigers in the SEC Tournament for the first time since 1993, when Ole Miss defeated Auburn, 69-55, in Chattanooga, Tennessee.

Now, with Day 3 set to get underway in Greenville (S.C.), the SEC Tournament bracket has been updated with eight teams remaining. Who's in?
