Little Rock Volleyball Adds Missouri State to 2020 Schedule

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – Little Rock Volleyball has added to its 2020 slate as the Trojans will host Missouri State on Sept. 20 at the Jack Stephens Center.
 
The Sunday matinee match marks the second non-conference match for the Trojans after Little Rock faces Central Arkansas in the Governor's I-40 Showdown on Sept. 11. The added contest will provide Little Rock one more test before Sun Belt Conference play begins on Sept. 25.
 
Sunday's match will be just the sixth meeting between the two programs despite the regional connection. Missouri State leads the series, 3-2, after claiming a 2012 match, 3-1, in Springfield, Missouri. This will be the Bears' first-ever trip to Little Rock.
 
In addition to the Sunday match, the two teams will face each other in an exhibition contest on Sept. 19 at 4 p.m.
 
Missouri State is a member of the Missouri Valley Conference, a league that is not competing in sports this fall but has allowed member institutions to compete in select non-conference matches. The Bears went 10-22 (7-11 MVC) in a rebuilding year last fall.
 
Ticket information and protocols for the Jack Stephens Center for events this fall will be announced in the coming days.
