Meanwhile, Moberly got themselves on the board against Hannibal on Monday, but Hannibal never followed suit. They were the clear victors by a 14-0 margin over the Pirates. The result was nothing new for the Spartans, who have now won three contests by seven runs or more so far this season.

Northeast came out on top in a nail-biter against Moberly in their previous meeting back in October of 2024, sneaking past 9-7.
