The Mizzou women's basketball team thoroughly outshot and out-rebounded Oral Roberts in a 88-49 victory on Saturday.

The win marked the program's 800th win in its history.

The Tigers finished the afternoon shooting 54 percent from the field, while Oral Roberts shot with just 25 percent accuracy.

Ladazhia Williams had another big outing for head coach Robin Pingeton, with the team-high 14 points, along with five rebounds.

Mizzou will play again on Sunday, as the team will host former Tiger head coach Cindy Stein and the Southern Illinois Salukis.
