Staying true to Bears’ volleyball head coach Melissa Stokes’ promise of a cut-throat schedule, Missouri State’s second tournament of the year was stacked with strong competition.
The Bears finished off the weekend with a 2-1 record, improving their overall season to 4-2.
During the first match of the weekend, MSU looked dominant against its new rival, Ohio State University, winning 3-1.
The 12th ranked Buckeyes fell in four sets after their defense underperformed against a strong Bears’ offense.
Combined with having a competitive team, OSU has a strong following of fans that add an extra level of intimidation.
