Carter started the game 3-for-3 from 3-point range as the Tigers pushed out to a 20-7 lead.
But Missouri cooled off and the Quakers responded with a 14-0 run to take a 21-20 lead. The run started when Charles hit a 3-pointer and Slajchert hit a jumper and a trey.
Charles knocked down consecutive 3-point jumpers as Penn pushed its advantage to 32-25.
Missouri stepped up its defensive pressure late in the first half and finished with an 11-3 surge to take a 43-41 lead. Hodge started that rally with a traditional 3-point play in transition, then added to the rally with a 3-point jumper.
Slajchert hit two free throws to tie the game at 43 at halftime.
The Tigers continued their defensive pressure in the second half while moving out to a 54-48 lead. Gomillion hit a 3-point jumper to cap an opening 11-5 run by the Tigers.
The Quakers stayed close and tied the game at 67-67 on a drive by Slajchert. But Gomillion got the Tigers rolling toward an 83-71 lead with a 3-point jumper, two free throws and a second-effort lay-up.
Penn got no closer than seven points after that.
