In the 2013 season, Missouri clinched the Southeastern Conference championship—the university's first in any sport since entering the SEC in 2012—with a perfect regular season, finishing with a 35–1 record after losing in round two of the NCAA Tournament.[3][4] Senior setter Molly Kreklow went on to be selected by U.S. women's national volleyball team to compete in the NORCECA Women's Volleyball Championship.[5]
Missouri has made the tournament 18 times since 2000, most recently in 2023 [6]
