Wheeler: Missouri State sports year in review

I enjoyed 2016.

That’s right, I said it.

As much as you love to get on Twitter and hate on 2016, I’m sitting here singing “Go Cubs Go” with a big smile on my face, a whole two months after the winter classic.

2016 was also an incredible year for sports.

For a reminder, the Chicago Cubs came back from being down 3-1 in the series to win the World Series for the first time since 1908.

LeBron brought his city its first championship since the Browns won the NFL Championship in 1964.

We can’t forget Kris Jenkins’ shot at the buzzer to win the NCAA Tournament for Villanova and we can’t forget that Peyton Manning went out as a Super Bowl champion.
