I try to never argue with a bald man, so good point
This is true but "dingbat" is NOT your thing! Feel free to claim your thing and I'll update the list!
My apologies... but I really struggle to take a ding... uh I mean enlarged PAer seriously, especially after one ripped me off this summer in Erie. But, I'll try to refrain from that d-word, as there are other d-words that can be used to describe party members.
THANK you for NOT calling me fat or obese! Because I am only SLIGHTLY overweight. Or as you put it, enlarged. But you cant trust those fellers up in Erie! You get me that name, and I'll have a nice little "chat" with em! I watch out for my fellow MoSporters!
Last time had a .500 season was 1984 (5-5) with coach Mark McDonald & last sub .500 season was in 1982 (4-6) under coach Mike Hutchinson.
Like most sites the owner moves away, losses interest or can no longer afford the cost to maintain site or dies. The great Jefferson City site and a couple of good sites for Lexington & Winnetonka that had all the scores disappeared before I could get info off of them. So, my Lexington & Winnetonka records only go back to the 1990s but I found another source for Jefferson City for the 1905-1949 scores I was missing.
Luckily, I had corresponded with the Webb City guy over the years and even sent him some early 1920s scores he didn't have. I have all the scores he had posted and continue adding each new season.
My collection of Missouri school's football histories keeps growing as I add more teams and still trying to find historical scores. But I tip my hat to you as I know you have more on Carl Junction than I do and maybe Lamar!
Might not be a record but would be interesting to know who has had a better run (I think JRod was .500 in 1998 also)
I have completed Carl Junction for 1921, working on 1920 right now ... its been a struggle. Of course, I tend to get sidetracked when game broadcasters make mistakes by saying something is a school record and then I have to spend time going back to look it up to double check.
This week I've had to go double check the school record for longest field goal made and found an interesting discrepancy. I also spent some time trying to track down two box scores that for some reason I managed to think I had and I didn't because it came during my time at the Joplin Globe ... the September 6, 2002 season opener when Carl Junction played at Willow Springs, I found the scoring summary in the Springfield News-Leader but I don't have a full box score. And the box score from the September 26, 2003 Lamar at Carl Junction game ... this aggravates me because I was at this game as it was the first game at the new Bulldog Stadium (post tornado) and there was a weather delay and the game ended late and apparently the box score did not make the paper and I cannot find the game stats anywhere.

If people can recall the address for the WC site, you could try the WayBackMachine website to see if any of it will appear.
Pretty close. Not sure what year Nixa started football. I know Nixa played Reeds Spring in 1982, not sure what there first year was.
believe Tom Cox was the Head Coach at Webb City the year before Jerry Kill was hired. He was there one year before being lured away by Ozark. I'm not sure his record that year (1987 I believe) but he played many sophomores.
The news talked on Nixa’s first team being recognized at a game earlier this year; said it was the ‘84 bunch. From what I’m seeing here, that’s probably the first varsity squad. However, being as old as I am, the 80s don’t seem that long ago, even if it’s 40 years. I do agree this is crazy.
Yeah it's wild how that area has grown. I lived in Springfield in the very early 00s and back then Kickapoo and to a lesser extent Glendale seemed to be the schools where everyone wanted their kids. Nixa (and Ozark) were definitely growing but wasn't anything special, just a kind of ordinary boring suburb. Definitely not a place overflowing with money and athletes like it is now.
Yes, Nixa, Ozark, and Republic have exploded in growth in the last 40 years. Most likely we're watching Strafford do the same thing on the other side of the metro. That town could be something else in 10, 20, 30 years.
Strafford, Rogersville, and I think Clever as well could blow up.
I graduated SMS in 99. Moved back in 2020. I'm still blown away at the growth in such a short period of time. The area has far outgrown the infrastructure.
Meanwhile in these 20 years, Im sure you have outgrown your own infrastructure. HA! Boom! Roasted!
Bosko making a fat joke?? Now I've seen it all.
Pretty sure Webb was 5-5 in 1998.
I believe 98 was also the last time they lost to McDonald County.
Looked at my files again and 1998 was 5-5 record. didn't check every year for he Mcdonald County game but pretty sure that was last time they lost to them.
