Tennessee Tech takes a 1-1 record to Missouri for an 11 a.m. CT Education Day game Monday. The Golden Eagles are coming off a 90-47 win over Emory & Henry, while the 2-0 Tigers bring a balanced attack led by senior Grace Slaughter and several key newcomers.

By the Numbers
  • Tennessee Tech: 80.5 points scored and 77.5 allowed per game.
  • Missouri: 82.0 points scored and 69.0 allowed per game.
  • Savannah Davis leads Tech with 16.0 points per game; Slaughter averaged 18.7 points and 6.8 rebounds last season.
  • Tech beat Emory & Henry 90-47; Missouri beat Little Rock 73-50.
Yes, But

Tech’s emphatic home win followed a 37-point loss at Butler, so its early form has varied. Missouri has started unbeaten, but its opener against Howard required a comeback from a 19-point fourth-quarter deficit.

What’s Next

The teams meet Monday at Mizzou Arena, with the game airing on ESPN+ and 107.7 Grace FM.

Bottom Line

Tech’s recent defensive pressure and scoring depth face an early test against a Missouri team that has shown both offensive firepower and resilience.
