Last week, I attended our dedication ceremony for the Stephens Indoor Facility. Around 150 supporters were on hand to celebrate, including Brad and Rachel Stephens and their family.

This spectacular facility sends a strong message across Missouri and the nation: We’re building a championship culture here at Mizzou. Tigers past and present can be proud of what we’ve accomplished, and we’re already seeing the results

I want to again recognize Brad and Rachel Stephens for their leadership. I’m also thankful to the University of Missouri Board of Curators and all who supported this facility, as well Athletic Director Reed-Francois, Coach Drinkwitz and our incredible student-athletes.

I can’t wait to see what we achieve next. M-I-Z!
