The Missouri State men's soccer team is going dancing.

And the dance is coming to Springfield.

The NCAA announced Monday that Missouri State will host Denver in the first round of the tournament.

The Bears were ranked No. 9 in the country before their overtime loss to Loyola in the Missouri Valley Conference championship game, but did not earn one of the top 16 seeds in the tournament that would have given them a first-round bye.
