MOBERLY HOSTS NEW LOOK NCMC POWER HANNIBAL AFTER ST. CLAIR’S RETIREMENT

Moberly welcomes Hannibal for a battle of recent NCMC powers on KWIX Friday. The Spartans defeated the Pirates in both the 2017 regular season and postseason before Hannibal reclaimed its conference title last year. Moberly recorded its first NCMC win against Marshall last week, but the Spartans had trouble with snaps in the pistol formation rotating three different centers. Coach Cody McDowell believes it will be better this week.
