  "account": "Jason Crowe Jr. shattered Missouri’s freshman scoring record with a blistering 34-point performance in the Tigers’ 96-58 demolition of SIU Edwardsville on Monday night. The 6-foot-4 guard hit 11 of 16 shots from the field, including four 3-pointers and a perfect 8 of 9 at the free-throw line for Missouri (2-1). Crowe finished with the most points by a Tigers player since the 2023-24 season, demonstrating a strong return to form after shooting just 3 of 18 in a 90-84 loss to Saint Louis earlier in the week. He scored from all three levels, dominating from deep and knocking down midrange jumpers as Missouri built an insurmountable 48-24 halftime lead. Crowe broke his own freshman scoring record with a layup with just 4:02 remaining in the game. Missouri’s Toni Bryant contributed 18 points and seven rebounds, while Bryson Tiller added 11 points and Jamier Jones chipped in with 10. The Tigers shot an impressive 58% from the field and made 12 of their 23 3-pointers. Dehrio McCaskill led SIU Edwardsville (2-2) with 11 points, while the Cougars held Missouri to just 17% from beyond the arc. Missouri played the majority of the contest without Mark Mitchell, who exited with a facial injury and did not return. Missouri next faces Marquette on Sunday, while SIU Edwardsville travels to No. 2 Duke on Friday.",
