• 2014 marks Mizzou’s 19th season of soccer, as the program was started in 1996. The Tigers have an all-time record of 196-158-21. • Head Coach Bryan Blitz enters 2014 just four wins shy of 200 at Mizzou, and nine wins shy
of 250 in his coaching career. • 2014 marks Mizzou’s third season in the Southeastern Conference. The fi rst two years, the
Tigers compiled a combined conference record of 12-9-3. • Three Tigers were named to the SEC Coaches’ Preseason Watch List earlier in the week: senior
midfi elder Kaysie Clark, junior defender Candace Johnson and sophomore midfi elder Melanie Donaldson. • The 2014 Tigers are a family affair, with two pairs of sisters suiting up for Mizzou. Senior Kaysie
Clark is joined on the pitch by her sister, freshman Kaitlyn, while freshman Jessica Johnson joins her sister Jessica on the squad. • Redshirt freshman Jessica Herrman will make her Missouri debut this season, two years
after joining the Tigers. Herrman suffered season-ending injuries in 2012 and 2013 that kept her off the fi eld, but the Raytown, Mo., native will fi nally suit up for Mizzou in 2014. • Eight newcomers join 17 returnees to make up the 2014 Tiger roster. Mizzou’s new additions
include D Lizzy Akre, M Kaitlyn Clark, D Lauren Gaston, F Allie Hess, M/F Jessica Johnson, M Alli Magaletta, M Savannah Trujillo and M Taylor Walker.
