NCAA Womens Basketball: Tennessee at Vanderbilt Jim Brown-USA TODAY Sports

Good morning.

The Vanderbilt women’s basketball team cruised to a surprisingly easy 77-55 win over Auburn on Thursday night in the SEC opener for both teams. The Commodores improved their overall record to 11-3 with the win; Mariella Fasoula led Vanderbilt with 21 points and 19 rebounds.

Seven Vanderbilt bowlers are competing in the United States Amateur Championship, which opens today in Las Vegas.

Swimming is competing in the Quad Meet in Gainesville, Florida, on Friday, along with Florida, North Florida, and Liberty.
