@Jweiss11, did Missouri Southern become a 4-year college in 1967 or 1977? According to the school's page they didn't become Missouri Southern until 1977 but coach articles that have Missouri Southern has them listed as Missouri Southern as early as 1966 instead of Joplin JC.

Missouri Southern was still competing as a JC in 1967; see here: https://www.newspapers.com/article/oakland-tribune/159914959/. 1968 appears to be the progam's first as a four-year college. See page 4 of their media guide.
