Mizzou Links for August 22, 2022.
Sorry townies, CoMo’s a-buzzin!
Best of luck to all the Tigers (athletics and otherwise, students and teachers, staff and administrators) starting the 2022-2023 academic year today!
It looks like Tiger Walk went off with a bang this year, with several of Mizzou’s programs (as always) showing off their freshmen participation.

As for Mizzou Softball, it appears as if they started their school year with one last trip to the pool.
Meanwhile, women’s basketball got taken to a different type of school.
We are so grateful that @MUJimSpain came to spend some time with our team today and share his wisdom about all things University of Missouri. It was a great way to kick off the start of a new year! pic.twitter.com/vcsLs8OITz
