Junior college transfer Stefhon Hannah dropped in 25 points to lead Missouri’s basketball team over Missouri-Rolla 105-67 in the Tigers preseason opener. Mizzou will play Lithuania Academy Monday in its final preseason game, before opening the regular season Nov. 10th against North Carolina A&T.

Yesterday’s meeting between the two teams was the first in 84 years, and the Tigers wasted no time in getting reacquainted with the Miners, jumping out to a 17-point lead in the game’s first ten minutes.

Marshall Brown had 23 points and nine rebounds for MU. Matt Lawerence scored 12, and Hannah and Jason Horton led the team with six assists each.
