šŸ”¼  Homecoming Queen. The Tigers took down Coppin State 80-48, but the experience meant much more. It was the first time that a defending womenā€™s NCAA DI National Champion played at an HBCU. There was a sold out crowd at Coppin State, a school that Angel Reeseā€™s aunt and cousin played at, for the first time. Angel led the Tigers in her hometown with 26 points, going 11-15 from the field. Last-Tear Poa had a career-high 8 assists with no turnovers. Aneesah Morrow recorded her seventh-straight double-double with 13 points and 13 rebounds. She added three blocks and four steals. Flauā€™Jae Johnson had her third-straight game in double figures, scoring 18 points. The ladies will be back in the PMAC after the holidays.
