Despite missing the final 22 games of the 2018 campaign due to injury, Misner produced a breakout sophomore season at the plate. He paced the Tigers in average (.360), doubles (nine), triples (three), on-base percentage (.497), slugging percentage (.576) and stolen bases (13).
Misner quickly jumped onto the national scene with a 2017 Freshman All-America campaign. He finished with 12 doubles, seven home runs, 34 RBI and 17 stolen bases in a sensational first year at Mizzou. Misner's seven home runs were the most by a Tiger freshman since Trevor Coleman in 2007.
Over his two-year career thus far in Mid-Missouri, Misner is a career .311 hitter with 75 runs scored, 21 doubles, four triples, 11 home runs, 59 RBI, 30 stolen bases and .908 OPS.
