Missouri volleyball’s depth outside is proving to be a strength for the Tigers

Missouri volleyball head coach Wayne Kreklow has a problem: His outside hitters are too talented.

His team’s trio of Melanie Crow, Sydney Deeken and Leketor Member-Meneh each have more than 100 kills this season and at least 2.4 kills per set.

The problem is that since they all play the same position, only two of them can be on the court at the same time while the third is forced to watch from the bench.

Put in this situation, another coach might have dropped one of the three players to a backup role, favoring the consistent use of the same two outside hitters.
