WACO, Texas — Madison Scott scored 14 points, including a tiebreaking jumper in the final minute, and Mississippi advanced to the Sweet 16 of the women's NCAA Tournament with a 69-63 victory over Baylor on the Bears' home court. Sira Thienou scored 16 points as the Rebels won twice in Waco three years after a first-round loss that was the first tournament victory for South Dakota. Aaronette Vonleh scored 16 points for the Bears. They failed to advance to the Sweet 16 from their arena for the second time in four seasons under coach Nicki Collen. They had done so eight consecutive times under Kim Mulkey, who won three national championships at Baylor.
