Starr Jacobs' Double-Double Propels Women's Basketball Over Vanderbilt
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Ole Miss women’s basketball earned its fifth-straight win over No. 23/23 Vanderbilt on Sunday afternoon, 76-61, at Memorial Gymnasium in Nashville, Tenn.
The Rebels (15-6, 6-3 SEC) relied on its frontcourt duo of Starr Jacobs and Madison Scott, who scored 24 and 16 points, respectively. Ole Miss held Vanderbilt (18-5, 5-4 SEC) to its second-fewest scoring performance of the year, which is only topped by the Rebel’s first game against the team earlier this season.
For Ole Miss, it’s the first ranked win since defeating No. 5 Stanford on March 19, 2023, and the first SEC ranked win since taking down No. 24 Arkansas on Jan. 29, 2023. It’s head coach Yolett McPhee-McCuin’s 11th victory over a ranked opponent in her tenure in Oxford.
Jacobs shined for the Rebels, scoring 24 points and shooting 12-of-13 from the field against the Commodores. She recorded the 29th double-double of her career after hauling in 10 rebounds, splitting the offensive and defensive totals. It’s her third time reaching double-double marks with Ole Miss this season.
