SPRINGFIELD -- Fans hungry for some hoops got to have a little taste of roundball at the JQH Arena on Saturday night with a meet-and-greet for the Missouri State Bears and Lady Bears. The evening included brief scrimages by the teams as well as an introduction of the players and a chance to get their autographs.
The men play their first pre-season game Monday, Nov. 2, against Missouri-St. Louis while the women play Missouri Western on Sunday, Nov. 1.
For highlights of the gathering as well as interviews with coach Cuonzo Martin and Casey Garrison, please take a look at the accompanying video.
