  • There is nothing scheduled for today.

Did you notice?

  • Mizzou Football is already looking far ahead, extending an offer to wide receiver/ defensive back, Tramon Williams Jr. from the 2029 class. Williams is the son of Tramon Williams Sr., a NFL defensive back for 14 seasons.
  • Mizzou alum and former All-Sec standout Kylie Deberg is making noise at the national level in beach volleyball. Deberg secured a gold medal for the U.S. at the BPT Challenge in China.

Mizzou baseball has secured a commitment from in-state pitcher Eli Skidmore. The Francis Howell senior was recently named an All-District selection and will look to add a spark to the Tigers on the mound next season.
