Arguably the hottest team in all of Missouri athletics is a Dawn Sullivan-led volleyball squad. That team, most recently sweeping South Carolina and extending its winning streak to nine matches, was just inserted into the AVCA Top 25.

Led by Jordan Iliff, Janet DeMarrais, Mychael Vernon and Marina Crownover, the Tigers have propelled themselves to the top of a challenging SEC conference. Sitting at second in the conference currently, the Tigers are one of four ranked SEC schools, alongside Kentucky, Texas and Florida.

The remainder of the Tigers' schedule sees them take on two of those ranked teams in the Gators and Wildcats, both of which come at home.
