AUBURN, Ala. (KMIZ)

The Mizzou women's basketball team came out on top in a back and forth fight with Auburn on Sunday. The Tigers downed the other Tigers 62-56 at Auburn Arena.

Hayley Frank continues to impress in her senior season, as she put up her second-straight 20 point game. The forward finished with 23 points and six rebounds. Guard Katlyn Gilbert was right behind her with 14 points on the night. Gilbert had a big second half for the Tigers, as she scored 78 percent of her total production.

The rest of the Mizzou team struggled, shooting wise. Haley Troup and Ashton Judd were the two closest scorers with eight and nine points, respectively.

With the win, head coach Robin Pingeton and company improve to 13-2 on the season and remain undefeated in SEC action.
