The Tigers from Columbia controlled nearly all facets of the match with more kills, digs, aces and a .375 hitting percentage compared to .193 for the Bayou Bengals.
Dawn Sullivan’s squad limited Jurnee Robinson, who led the SEC in kills and kills per set entering the match, to 13 kills on a .188 hitting percentage, frustrating the hosts’ hitters all match.
Mizzou began the opening set red-hot, starting on a 6-1 run with three quick kills by middle blocker Regan Haith.
