However, she began to creep into the upper 170s during the 2021 regular season and her development hasn’t slowed since.

There is never a shortage of people to be impressed with – on or off of the athletic fields – at Southeast Missouri State.

As it turns out, about a lot of things in life, your parents were correct when they advised us all as youth that we are known by the company that we keep. That is applicable in social circles, education, business, and politics. And it is true in intercollegiate athletics, as well.

There are few businesses anywhere in the world that haven’t had to think differently over the past couple of years in this ever-changing environment that we are all immersed in, more than likely, forever. And Semoball.com is not immune to that. The website devoted to providing sports fans thorough coverage of sports throughout Southeast Missouri is still going to make that its mission on a daily basis, however, the internal pieces are going to be doing some shifting moving forward.
