Tipoff is 11 AM today.

Stephens College is a private women's college in Columbia, MO. They compete in the NAIA.
The Stars are currently 5-2, but this game is an exhibition for them. This game is also the "elementary school game", when a thousand screaming elementary school children descend upon Western Hall to provide one of the most interesting atmospheres at any of our home games.

This game is also being shown on ESPN+.

It is great seeing the stands filled, even if it is with screaming elementary kids. They are awesome at cheering the team on, for sure!!!!
