Box Score OXFORD, Miss. -- The Mississippi Valley State women's basketball team was just one shot away from upsetting Ole Miss for the third time in school history Tuesday night.

Lenise Stallings 3-point shot from the corner bounced off the rim and Ole Miss escaped to extend the series lead to 12-2.
