Dores Clip Eagles – Vanderbilt Commodores

No. 8/9 Vanderbilt scores 100-plus points for the third straight game in a 102-50 victory over Morehead State
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The No. 8/9-ranked Vanderbilt women’s basketball team cruised to its third straight victory to begin the 2026-27 season Monday night, as the Commodores picked up a 102-50 win over Morehead State at Memorial Gymnasium.
The Commodores scored 100-plus points in the 52-point win over Morehead State. It marks the first time in program history that Vanderbilt has registered 100 or more points in three straight games. Vandy came into the contest against the Eagles having posted a 112-53 victory over Lipscomb in the season opener last Monday and a 100-42 win over Queens this past Wednesday.
With the victory, Vanderbilt improves to 3-0 on the year. It is the fifth-straight season that the Dores have opened a campaign with three consecutive victories.
Vanderbilt had four players score double-digit points in Monday’s victory over Morehead State. Junior Mikayla Blakes paced the Dores with a game-high 25 points, while she dished out six assists.
Blakes 25-point effort pushes her NCAA-leading streak of consecutive games with 20-plus points to 18. The guard also extends her double-digit scoring streak to 56 games, which is the third-longest among all active NCAA players.
The Somerset, New Jersey, native moved into seventh place on Vanderbilt’s all-time scoring list on Monday, as Blakes’ 25 points give her 1,763 career points, passing Christina Foggie (1,743 points; 2004-07).
Sophomore Aubrey Galvan and senior Aiyana Mitchell recorded a double-double against the Eagles. Galvan registered a season-best 18 points to go along with 10 assists to collect her second double-double of the season.
For Mitchell, the 6-4 forward scored a season-high 15 points and pulled down 10 rebounds in 18 minutes off the bench. It is her second career double-double and her first since last season’s 12-point, 10-rebound performance off the bench vs. California in Paris, France on Nov. 3, 2025. Overall, it is the third time in Mitchell’s career pulling down double-figure caroms.
It is the first time a pair of Dores have had a double-double in the same contest since March 21, 2026, when Sacha Washington (10 points, 17 rebounds) and Ndjakalenga Mwenentanda (10 points, 11 rebounds) each had one in the victory over High Point in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.
Junior Mia Woolfolk had her first 20-point performance for the Dores, as the Midlothian, Virginia, native tallied 20 points and six rebounds in 20 minutes of action. It extends Woolfolk’s double-digit scoring streak to 16 games, while it is her sixth career collegiate game with 20-plus points.
Vanderbilt led from beginning to end against Morehead State on Monday night. The Dores shot 49.3 percent from the floor and made 10 3-point field goals for the second straight contest. Vandy forced MSU into 27 miscues, which gave the Dores a 36-11 edge in points off turnovers.
Coach Ralph on the Win
“I really appreciate everyone coming here to support this team tonight. I want to encourage our fans, students and community to come out and watch this team. We are really special. We will make it a great show, I promise.
“That being said, I thought we got better today. There were some lapses and things that I think we can fix, but I always expect perfection from my team, and they got close today in a lot of ways. The thing that stuck out to me the most was that our great players played great. Our bench came in and was really solid. That was a point of emphasis over the last few days. I thought everybody came ready to make an impact today, and they did.”
