Osage Beach — The School of the Osage beat Russellville 3-1 on Monday, and Tuesday saw several Central Missouri and Central State 8 matchups: Rock Bridge rallied past Jefferson City 6-5, Battle defeated Capital City 8-4, Russellville edged Eugene 2-1, and New Bloomfield topped Fayette 7-5. The results produced record changes and set upcoming matchups: Osage will host Boonville today, New Bloomfield travels to Higbee Friday, Russellville moved to 7-4 overall before beating Eugene Tuesday, and conference standings will be influenced by these early-season pitching performances and late-inning rallies.
