For the fourth consecutive year, Missouri volleyball is heading to the second round of the NCAA Tournament.
The No. 24 Tigers knocked off No. 23 Arizona 3-0 (25-17, 25-22, 25-18) Friday in Lincoln, Nebraska, and will play the winner of Hofstra and No. 6 Nebraska at 7 p.m. Saturday. Kylie Deberg and Dariana Hollingsworth each collected 11 kills, and senior Alyssa Munlyn notched 10 of her own.
Missouri (24-7) has made the NCAA Tournament every year since 2015 and reached the Sweet 16 each of the past two seasons. Wayne Kreklow’s squad could make that three consecutive years with a win their next match.
