For the second consecutive year, the Capital City Cavaliers’ undefeated start to the season ends with Rock Bridge. The Bruins jumped ahead early and made the stop they needed late to hold off Capital City’s comeback attempt for a 38-28 Central Missouri Activities Conference win Friday at Capital City High School.
Through the first third of the season, the Capital City Cavaliers are off to a perfect start for the second consecutive season. Now comes the hardest part of the schedule. The middle third of the Cavaliers’ season kicks off tonight with their toughest test yet as they host the Rock Bridge Bruins at 7 p.m. in a Central Missouri Activities Conference matchup.
The Capital City Cavaliers were focused from the opening whistle. Capital City’s starters ran the offense at peak efficiency to lead a 59-16 win against the Hickman Kewpies in Central Missouri Activities Conference play Friday night at Hickman.
Early this week, Capital City Cavaliers coach Joe Collier said the team wanted to give the fans a good show in the debut game of the Cavaliers’ new stadium. They got a great one Friday night. Capital City came back from an 11-point deficit with under 7 minutes to play to take a 37-34 Central Missouri Activities Conference win against the Battle Spartans, earning their second double-digit comeback in two weeks.
Time for some revenge. The Battle Spartans ended the Capital City Cavaliers’ upstart season last year in the opening round of the Class 5 District 4 Tournament with a 34-14 win. The Cavaliers haven’t forgotten.
