Moberly sweeps district titles

Here's a slideshow from the Moberly girls basketball team's district championship game against Mexico Friday night at Moberly Area Community College. The Lady Spartans took down the Lady Bulldogs, 58-46, to win their first district championship in 29 years.

The Moberly boys also won a district championship Friday night, beating Mexico 69-62.

Potential path for the Lady Bruins

The Lady Bruins tip off against Troy-Buchanan Friday night - with a win, the Lady Bruins would clinch the district title and advance to the state tournament and represent district 9 - they'd face off against the winner of the Jefferson City/Waynesville/Rolla/Camdenton bracket.


Rock Bridge handily defeated both Jefferson City and Rolla (twice) this year, so a potentially lopsided matchup looms should the Lady Bruins advance as Camdenton and Waynesville have a combined 21-23 record.


That game would be at Union HS in Union on March 3.
