May 19th, 2022. Kickapoo was playing for their first district championship since 2018. Standing in their way was a talented Nixa team that was having their best season on record at 32-3 and recognized nationally as a top 25 team. Cael McCarville’s grand slam in the 1st, Anderson Underwood’s solo shot in the 2nd, Cross Kubik’s ability to keep the Eagle hitters off balance and the flawless defense played by the Chiefs proved more than enough to knock off top ranked Nixa and claim another district championship for the “Brown & Gold”.
