It’s impossible for a college basketball team to completely shut out an opponent, but the Missouri basketball squad certainly made a decent run at it against the Cleveland State Vikings.
Mizzou (7-0) kept Cleveland State off the scoreboard entirely in the first 8:59 of Saturday’s game before the Vikings managed their first points at Mizzou Arena. At that point, the Tigers were ahead 23-0.
Cleveland State missed its first 13 shot attempts of the game, while Mizzou got 8 points from Mark Mitchell during the opening run – even though the Tigers didn’t score their first points of the game until the 18:01 mark.
Cleveland State’s Dylan Nessah finally broke the seal with a pair of free throws with 11:01 to play in the first half. The Vikings didn’t manage their first field goal until Nessah hit a jumper with 10:13 remaining.
The Vikings (3-5) made up for their lackluster start after that, however, chipping away to make the deficit 16 points at one juncture before heading into halftime trailing 46-22.
The Tigers started the 2022-23 season 9-0 and are aiming for similar results in 2025-26. Mizzou has played all but 1 of its games this season at home, a season-opening 88-67 victory at Howard.
