COLUMBIA, Mo. - As we reach the eve of the NCAA Championships' 50th Anniversary weekend, the Mizzou Tigers are given a unique opportunity to look back at how it all started. 1965 marked the first ever NCAA Indoor Championships meet, and the five Tigers who traveled to Detroit, Mich., for the event would depart with an honor held by few - NCAA Team Champions. They are one of only two teams in Missouri history to hold that distinction, with the other being the Tigers' baseball program who won the title in 1954.
