After Mizzou Volleyball’s narrow five set win over Ole Miss on Friday, there were some causes for concern with the Tigers. Marina Crownover had struggled in the match, replaced by Sierra Dudley, and the team’s offense was highly error-prone over the first three sets.
Dawn Sullivan’s squad found a way to win Friday against the Rebels despite the issues. But Mizzou fell in a big 3-1 upset Sunday to Mississippi State (25-19, 20-25, 22-25, 24-26) as similar struggles reappeared.
The match started out well enough for the Tigers, who took a quick 5-0 lead in set one with a kill and solo block by Jordan Iliff.
