The Missouri baseball coaching search was just long enough to see two or three different front-runners, but in the end, one of the first people linked with the job, took it. This afternoon, Missouri announced that SEMO's Steve Bieser, the only coach to win three consecutive Ohio Valley Conference titles, will be the program's 14th head coach.

A two-time OVC Coach of the Year, Bieser won 35 or more games in each of his last three seasons at SEMO, a feat that had been accomplished just once before he took over the program in 2013.
