SEC Announces Mizzou Softball 2023 Schedule

BIRMINGHAM, Ala.  – The Southeastern Conference announced its 2023 softball conference schedule, Thursday afternoon. Conference play is set to begin March 10 and run through May 7. The regular-season conference schedule includes eight three-game series for each team for a total of 24 games. Series are subject to change, including the move of some series to conclude on Mondays.

The Tigers will host four series and travel on the road for another four. Mizzou will open SEC play at home against Kentucky (March 10-12) before traveling to Florida (March 17-19) and Auburn (March 24-26) for back-to-back road series. The Tigers then play host to Alabama (March 31-April 2) followed by a trip to Baton Rouge against LSU (April 7-9).

Mizzou’s conference slate continues when they host Ole Miss (April 14-16). After a scheduled SEC weekend bye, Mizzou travels to Texas A&M (April 28-30) before concluding conference action at home against Arkansas (May 5-7).

Mizzou went 12-11 in conference play a season ago, which included series wins against Kentucky and Texas A&M. The Tigers went on to a successful run in the SEC Tournament, not allowing a run until the Championship game where Mizzou was defeated by Arkansas.

Mizzou is coming off a 2022 season where they hosted an NCAA Regional for the second-consecutive year and made the SEC Tournament Championship game for the second time in program history. In 2023, Mizzou looks to stretch its run of 15-straight NCAA Tournament appearances. The Tigers return its entire pitching staff from a year ago, who posted a 2.81 ERA including 1.00 ERA in the postseason. Mizzou also returns 2022 Golden Glove Winner and NFCA All-Region performer, Jenna Laird.
