On the first Senior Night in program history, the Capital City Cavaliers beat their crosstown-rival Jefferson City 77-72 for the first time. As the buzzer sounded, Cavalier students stormed the court and players threw their hands in the air in celebration. It was easy to tell how much this win meant to the Cavaliers.
The Blair Oaks Falcons have avenged every regular-season loss from last year. First it was Monroe City, then it was Helias. Next came Nixa, and most recently was the Jefferson City Jays. The Blair Oaks defense held Jefferson City to 31 percent shooting Friday, leading wire-to-wire for a commanding 75-44 victory.
