The Lady Pirates, fighting to keep their season alive, were derailed by the downpour. With runners on base, the game was called due safety reasons. The Lady Pirates were still afloat, but ended their season with a 12 - 8 loss to Stoutland. It was a great season! 💙💛 #MCPirates Keep

The Lady Pirates XC team of Senior Bailey Allan, Juniors Izzy Willey and Kaelee Keehler, and Freshman Kelsie George and Alejandra Sanchez raced well at this morning's Capital City Invitational at Binder Park. Led by Alejandra, (who took 15th), our team finished 4th! Coach Ratliff was proud of the girls' effort as they battled the hilliest course the Lady Pirates will see all season. Our team continues to build experience and work toward their goals as the season progresses. Each race provides an opportunity for the team to improve, compete together, and represent MCHS with pride. Our team will be back in action this Monday afternoon at the Dixon Invitational, held at the golf course in Dixon, MO. The Lady Pirates look to carry their momentum into Dixon as they gear up for the PCL Conference Championships on October 20th. Great job today Lady Pirates! #MCPirates
