After going to the NCAA Tournament three out of the previous four seasons, Missouri State baseball took a step back in 2019.
Missouri State finished 20-36 for one of the worst seasons in the program's decorated history. The Bears have earned the right to have high expectations year after year under head coach Keith Guttin.
Heading into 2020, the Bears are ready to put last season in the past, but they also wanted to make sure they learned from it.
"Last year was a pretty brutal year," senior first baseman Ben Whetstone said.
