Mizzou Ranked in AVCA Poll for Fifth-Straight Week
- Despite a pair of tough losses versus nationally ranked squads this past week, Mizzou maintained its top 25 ranking in the latest American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) Division I Coaches poll.
- The Tigers have placed in the top 25 for five consecutive weeks, checking in at No. 24 in Week Nine (Oct. 22), No. 20 in Week 10 (Oct. 29), No. 24 in Week 11 (Nov. 5), No. 23 in Week 12 (Nov. 12) and No. 24 in this week's edition.

Mizzou Among Nation's Best in Hitting & Blocks Per Set
