No. 2 Mississippi State women’s basketball has won its first SEC Championship in program history.
MSU beat Texas A&M 76-55 Sunday, and with the victory, Mississippi State became the first women’s team to win an SEC Championship in school history.
The Bulldogs finished the regular season an incredible 28-0, with South Carolina finishing second at 22-5 overall and 11-3 in conference. To put it plainly, MSU has become a juggernaut in women’s basketball.
Head coach Vic Schaefer has done another marvelous job with this year’s team, and it’s not close to being over yet.
