COLUMBIA, MO. — After capturing another SEC series, the Missouri baseball team continues on its course to the NCAA postseason. What a season Steve Bieser’s Tigers have put together.
Mizzou (33-16-1, 12-11-1 SEC) is up to No. 20 in Baseball America’s poll and No. 20 in the NCAA’s RPI. For a program that faces more challenges than any team in the SEC — weather, parking, fan support, geography, scholarships — for the Tigers to be ranked among the nation’s top 20 teams this deep into the season is nothing short of remarkable.
This weekend’s series at Tennessee was especially impressive.
