COLUMBIA, Mo. – Mizzou women's basketball will travel to Florida State on Dec. 3 for the annual SEC/ACC Challenge.
Mizzou is 2-1 in the four-year contest with wins over SMU (2024-25) and Cal (2025-26) and a loss at Virginia (2023-24).
The Seminoles compiled a 10-21 overall record last season, including a 5-13 mark against ACC opponents.
Florida State is led by senior guard Sole' Williams, who averaged 15.3 points and 3.8 rebounds last year.
On the sidelines is sixth-year head coach Brooke Wyckoff, who is 90-60 during her tenure in Tallahassee.
Mizzou is headlined by All-SEC honoree Grace Slaughter, who returns for her senior year after ranking 33rd in the country and sixth in the SEC at 18.7 points per game. Slaughter will enter the year 12th on the program's all-time scoring list.
Featuring a reloaded roster, Missouri welcomes in five top 100 recruits that span both the 2024 and 2025 signing classes.
The Tigers' 2025 class of Natalya Hodge (No. 54), Khloe Ford (No. 94), Jada Maples (No. 95), Cecilie Brandimore and Ellie Muller ranks No. 25 nationally, the best for the program since 2018.
Mizzou also bolstered its roster with three transfer additions, McKenzie Mathurin (Michigan), Nevaeh Caffey (Indiana), Tanyuel Welch (Arizona).
Head coach Kellie Harper leads the charge in her second year after leading Mizzou to the most wins since 2017-18. Harper, who achieved her 400th win this past year, had the best start to a season by a first-year head coach in program history at 12-3.
The contest will be the sixth meeting between the cross-conference programs as Florida State leads the all-time series 3-2.
The teams last met in the second round of the 2017 NCAA Tournament.
