Missouri forward Trent Pierce was named to the Southeastern Conference's Community Service Team on Thursday, per a release from the team.

The junior team captain has worked with the following local organizations across his first three seasons with the program: Boys & Girls Club, Adopt-a-Family, The Food Bank for Central and Northeast Missouri, the University Children's Hospital and Veteran's Hospital, according to the release.

Mizzou Quote of the Day:

"Sometimes I just shake my head. I want to ask some of these coaches, 'Can't you
find a guy that can run 10 yards, turn outside and catch the ball? He's on the roster somewhere!' But it's not in their philosophy."
