COLUMBIA, Mo. -- Sophie Cunningham scored 19 points, including a pair of free throws with 1.4 seconds left, to cap No. 23 Missouri's fourth-quarter rally and 82-80 victory over Wright State on Thursday night.

Jordan Frericks had 26 points to lead Missouri. Cierra Porter added 13 points and 15 rebounds for her 15th career double-double.
Chelsea Welch scored a career-high 36 points for Wright State (2-1).
