The Tigers are coming off of back-to-back postseason appearances as head coach Robin Pingeton begins her fifth season at the helm of Mizzou Women's Basketball. The Tigers look to continue laying the foundations of success at Mizzou. The team returns 10 players from the 2013-14 season including star three-point shooter, Morgan Eye, and adds three newcomers in freshmen Bri Porter and Carrie Shephard and junior transfer Juanita Robinson.
Morgan Eye returns as the Tiger's leading scorer from last season. She averaged 12.9 points per game shooting 43-percent from the field. Eye has a chance to set the NCAA career three-pointers record as she is just 109 threes away from tying the current record. Eye has knocked down over 100 threes in two-consecutive seasons at Mizzou.
