Vanderbilt women's basketball star Mikayla Blakes makes more SEC history with 34-point explosion vs. Texas

The No. 5 Vanderbilt women's basketball squad scored a huge win Thursday night, as the Commodores dominated the No. 4 Texas Longhorns at Memorial Gymnasium in Nashville.

Behind the electric performance of NCAA scoring leader Mikayla Blakes, the Commodores took down the Longhorns to the tune of an 86-70 score.

Blakes torched the Longhorns all night long, coming away with a game-high 34 points on 9-for-19 shooting from the field and going 3-for-6 from behind the arc. She made a living as well from the free-throw line, as Blakes knocked down 13 of her 15 attempts from the charity stripe. In addition, the sophomore Blakes grabbed four rebounds and dished out three assists in 40 minutes.

It was the latest eruption in Blakes' ongoing scoring barrage in college basketball, as she also managed to accomplish an incredible and rare achievement.
