For one set, Missouri looked ready to make a statement.
The Tigers overwhelmed No. 25 Oregon with aggressive serving, efficient offense and a roaring Hearnes Center crowd, cruising to a 25-16 victory in the opening set Tuesday night.
Then Oregon adjusted.
The Ducks responded with three straight set victories, defeating Missouri 25-16, 25-20 and 25-19 to earn a 3-1 victory and hand the Tigers their first loss of the season.
Missouri entered the match 3-0 after sweeping its first three opponents in nine consecutive sets. Against its first ranked opponent, the Tigers showed early why coach Dawn Sullivan believes her young group can compete with anyone.
