3rd as a team

Head coach Tony Senor reports, “This was the kind of overall team performance that we wanted today. Everyone played well and made some great points and decisions on when to attack.

Brendan McKeown got 1st at Number 1. In the Semifinals match, he was able to avenge an earlier loss to Moberly by winning 10-6. Brendan had Kirksville in the finals. The Kirksville #1 player had to Forfeit due to injury. Brendan was winning 7-3 at that point.

Declan did not have his best day playing but he was able to secure All NCMC Conference Honors for two years in a row.

Boston Davolt had an excellent day going 2-1 to get All NCMC Conference Honors. Quaid Grubb also made it to the finals at #6 and he played with a lot of confidence.

Every team and player was either going for 3rd or 1st. That is a good position to be in with the NCMC Tournament. This confidence will boost our team and it will help our momentum going into Districts play.”

The St. Louis Cardinals lost their fifth consecutive game last (Wednesday) night by a score of 6-4 to the Los Angeles Angels.

The Redbirds had a lead going into the ninth inning, when Cardinals reliever Govanny Gallegos was touched up for four hits, three earned runs and two home runs.

The crowd of 42,148 booed Gallegos loudly.

The Kansas City Royals shutout the Baltimore Orioles 6-0 at the K.
