QUOTABLES

Mizzou Head Coach Shannon Welker
"That was a little disappointing tonight. It seemed like we lacked a little bit of focus. We're going to have to toughen up and be a little more relentless. We're going to run into tough environments like this so we have to be better and we have to prepare better."
