Series Snapshot vs. Kentucky

Mizzou trails in the all-time series with Kentucky, 6-5.
The Wildcats were triumphant in the programs' last meeting with a 3-1 win earlier this season in Lexington, Kentucky (Sept. 30, 2018).
The teams' last meeting in Columbia, Missouri, resulted in a 3-1 Kentucky victory. The Tigers last defeated the Wildcats in Mid-Missouri on Oct. 23, 2016.
All five of Mizzou's wins in the all-time series have occurred against a nationally ranked Wildcats squad. Kentucky's current No. 11 ranking in the country would result in the Tigers' top win over a ranked Wildcats squad.

Deberg Producing Historical Season at Service Line

Sophomore OH Kylie Deberg has posted one of the top individual single-seasons at the service line in Mizzou history. She enters Sunday's match with 54 aces this year, ranking T-4th most all-time in a Tiger single-season.
With two regular season matches remaining and likely postseason play also around the corner, Deberg needs six more aces for 60 overall this year. She'd become only the third player in Mizzou history to tally 60-plus aces in a single-season, joining Shen Danru (64 – 2002) and Yvette Buhlig (61 – 1990).
Within the 2018 NCAA individual rankings, Deberg's 54 aces heading into Sunday ranks sixth-best in the country. Additionally, her 0.51 aces per set ranks eighth in the nation.
Deberg has been even more effective serving in SEC play, as her 0.57 aces per set ranks tops in the conference. 65-percent (35 of 54) of her aces this year have occurred in a conference match, highlighted by eight multi-ace matches and four matches with four-plus aces.
