Los Gatos claims at least a share of the PAL Bay championship with a dramatic victory on the road over rival Wilcox.

The 2022 season was filled with many firsts for Capital City. But a couple still eluded the Cavaliers. Tonight, the No. 3 seed Cavaliers have a chance to right the missing piece from their first successful season as they look for Capital City’s first district win as it hosts No. 6 seed Battle Spartans in the first round of the Class 5 District 5 tournament.

Capital City controlled the trenches. The Cavaliers ran for 418 yards on 45 tries, led by Jaylen Thomas with 294 yards on 24 attempts, to build a dominant 49-7 win against the Truman Patriots on Friday at Capital City High School. “We were able to run basic offense against a big D-line,” Capital City coach Joe Collier said. “Jaylen ran well, (Evan) Schaffer ran well. He ran the offense like he usually does. I thought everybody contributed well.”

The Capital City Cavaliers are continuing to expand. As the Cavaliers move through the final third of the regular season, they are trying to get their offense back on track while developing it in ways that will force opposing defenses out of stacked boxes.

The Capital City Cavaliers were ready to get back to winning. And they set the tone fast. On the first play from scrimmage, Capital City recovered a fumble on defense, then needed only one play for the first of seven touchdowns on the way to a 48-21 Central Missouri Activities Conference win Friday night against the Sedalia Smith-Cotton Tigers at Capital City High School.
