Students thank you so much for supporting our FB team. Our team appreciated your attendance. YOU MADE A HUGE DIFFERENCE!! Let’s do it again in two weeks. Thank you!!! Go Bears!!🐻
Not to take anything away from JD but if Cook doesn’t get a hand on the pass & Kreck doesn’t dive on the floor to keep it alive, JD would have never had the chance to make one of the greatest shots in MSU history. That’s what I love about this team. Everyone has a job to do.
Schedule & who you play matter. We’re in the best FCS conf. We gave
#9
(BCS) Ok St all they wanted on the road. At the time, we beat these nationally ranked teams-SIU, UNI CArk. Beat USD who is now ranked. I keep saying this is a special team. They deserve more natl recognition.
With the 6⃣th-toughest schedule in the country, the Bears have the highest-ranked Strength of Schedule of any Top 25 team!
The work is far from over.
#WakeTheBears

. Another reg season ⚾️🏆. One of his best jobs as coach IMO. Doesn’t get enough credit for the national success & exposure he brings to Springfield & our university. Let’s win the the MVC tourney & see where we go. Way to 🐻⤴️.
It is with a heavy heart today that we acknowledge the loss of a valued member of our Bears family. Mike Peddicord was the GM of Missouri State Sports Properties. He was a trusted, loyal colleague and friend who I respected and sought counsel.
What an incredible ride the
@MSULadyBears

So proud of these guys and staff. Not a better place to be than in a winning locker room with guys yelling and screaming with joy. This team is coming together. Defense was stellar. Gritty, tough win. How about them B-E-A-R-S!!!!!!

This Lady Bear team is really fun to watch & be around. Great bunch of ladies that represent our university and ath program proudly. Happy for them that more people will get to witness and hear about them as we go to Chi-town for the Sweet 16. Congrats to
@KellieHarper
& staff.
He was many things but he was best at being a father to two amazing young girls, Maeve and Elise. I ask that you please keep the girls and Mike’s family & friends in your prayers.
I was deeply saddened to learn today of the passing of my friend Ed Pinegar. No one cared and backed up
their support of MSU more than Ed. He loved attending both men’s & women’s basketball and voicing his support passionately. Ed was someone I confided in and trusted greatly.
Goes without saying how proud and excited I am for Coach G, staff and this team. They had a lot of obstacles and tough nights but they never stop believing. They peaked at the right time. Congrats on a job well done. Let’s go make some more noise!!!!
Hope to see Springfield come out and support our FB team tomorrow @ 2:00. Playing for a chance to be Conf Co Champs. That’s right MVFC CO CHAMPS. Get there early to help recognize our seniors @ pre-game. Not sure how well I’ll sleep tonight. Can’t wait for tomorrow. Go Bears!!!!
Thank you to all the fans who traveled throughout the LB post season. Your support was inspirational to our team. To the support staff (ath/univ) & spirit squads thank you for your commitment to MSU. The hard work didn’t really feel like work. Special team, special year.
Congrats to the
@MSULadyBears
on their first round NCAA tournament win. So much fun to watch. They had another gear today. When challenged they responded. Love their effort, passion and teamwork. Well done Coach Mox!! The first of many NCAA tourney wins!! Go Lady Bears!!
Congrats to C. Stokes and the entire team on an incredible year. To go undefeated in the league and then validate by winning the tournament is truly remarkable. It started last year after NCAA’s. This group was determined to be special. Mission accomplished.

Really says it all. In this moment
@DanielleGitz
thought to think of program first. She’s ultra competitive who happens to be the team leader. Work left to be done. I can assure you those that came before you couldn’t be prouder. Lady Bear Pride!!!
Thank you to all our fans who came out to support our nationally ranked Lady Bears. Great hard fought game by both teams. Hope you enjoyed and will come back again. A little gift from our Lady Bears to you our games. Merry Christmas 🎄🎁.

Congrats to Coach Ford and staff on big time adjustment in tonight’s game to get us the win. Guys stepped up big time when needed. Gage was in beast mode. JMinnett catching 🔥. Fun to be in the hunt!!! Fans we need you to show up vs Bradley. It means something.
A special shout out goes to our Springfield Parks & Rec employees who worked their tails off to get our new scoreboard up & going. In addition they worked tirelessly to get the field in pristine shape and maintain it throughout the championship. A lot of pride in their work. ❤️👏
What a great ride these Lady Bears have taken us on. It’s really been a two year journey considering the challenges I can’t tell you how proud I am of how they conducted themselves on and off the court. True champions in every sense. They will go down as one of the schools best.
Let’s get behind Coach Stec and this team for Homecoming next Saturday. Students it’s all about you! We need you!! Let’s make 2018 HC one to remember on and off the field. Time to 🐻⤴️.

Thanks to all the staff who worked so hard to get us to today. Trainers, coaches & especially our players. It’s been a long journey since June 1. Our players have sacrificed a lot for the opportunity to play. I was proud of their effort tonight against one, if not the best team
Thank you to all the support staff for both L.Bears/Bears 🏀this year; 👍Concession, table crew, ushers, ticket office, parking, AV/sound, media r. mkt, spirit squads & best Pep Band in the land. It was a fun year. Thx for all your hard work. Most of all thank you fans 👏👏
Excellent run in the pre season WNIT by our L. Bears. Played the

team in the country toe to toe. This team has a lot of weapons. Worth the price of admission to see this team. Hope the community comes out to support these ladies Friday and the rest of the season.
Very deserving. Happy for entire staff. They have worked extremely hard at their craft. Team is in great hands. Good luck tomorrow. See you in Chicago.
Thx to all our staff and fans for supporting our FB team this Thanksgiving weekend and throughout the year. Our team had an amazing year with many positives. Fun team to watch. Much to look forward to. Thx to the seniors & staff for all your hard work in making us a playoff team!
Can’t say enough positive things about our men’s soccer program. They are what you want athletically, academically and in the community. A direct reflection of their head coach/staff. They should be remembered as one of the best TEAMS in MSU history. Thank you!!
Not sure where to start with the praise. First, thanks to our players & staff for their dedication & toughness through this extraordinary year. To our medial staff- the care that has been given has been remarkable. To our former players-I know how much you care about our
Couldn’t be prouder of a group of young men. Always respectful, hard working, no excuses, just results. Represented our University & community in the highest regard. History makers, program changers. They’re a direct reflection of their coaches. Bears through and through.
I appreciate everyone who made the trip to STL to follow our mteam. We played our guts out & just needed one break to get over the hump. Gr8 game by both teams. I’m really hoping this team gets invited to play post season. Big time players that are worth the price of admission.
#MSUBears
WIN!
Mason Hull’s two-run homer is the difference-maker as the Bears explode for five runs in the ninth inning to defeat Grand Canyon 8-7.
Now 1-1 in the Stillwater regional, MSU will play at Noon Sunday against the loser of Arkansas and Oklahoma State tonight.
Happy Thanksgiving to BearNation. So fortunate to have great coaches, caring support staff and talented, resilient student athletes. We’re proud to represent Mo State. Thank you today and every day for your support. Go Bears!!!
Long ride home from Moline but listening to the FB game made the ride home much more Bearable!! So happy for our players, staff and fans. Confidence is building. The future is bright. Congrats guys!!!
Privileged to attend MSU VB banquet tonight. Too many awards and accolades to mention. Clearly one of the best sr classes in MSU history when you consider character, academics and athletic success. Very proud of entire team and Coach Stokes. An unforgettable season. Thx ladies!
Congratulations to our 187 student athletes who achieved 3.25 GPA & above at our annual Maroon & White banquet. We have outstanding S/A who excel on & off the court. Great to have President, Provost, VP,Deans & faculty in attendance celebrating our success. Thx so much.

Great day for Lady Bear Basketball. We formally announced Beth Cunningham as our new head coach. She’s a proven leader who puts s/a welfare & development first!! I can’t wait for Lady Bear Nation to get to know her and her great family. Lets Go!!!
Proud of our student athletes who organized and participated in today’s march. It’s important to take a stand for what you believe in and own it. We stand by you to promote equality, inclusiveness and social consciousness.
