COACH TAYLOR ON ADDING BROWN TO PROGRAM

• "We're so lucky to have Emily joining us beginning in 2020. She's not only one of the best serve/receive liberos in her class, but she has the desire to improve every chance she gets. Her personality is one that will greatly benefit Mizzou Volleyball and the culture we are cultivating."

BROWN ON JOINING MIZZOU

• "Getting to come to Mizzou and be a part of this team is a dream come true. My goal was to play for a top program, but Mizzou is so much more than that. I had such great interactions with the coaches and I knew they would make me better as a player and a person. Then I was able to interact with the current team and that's when I knew that this is where I wanted to be. I'm so blessed to be coming to Mizzou!"
