Nixa has never beaten Webb City at football.
The Eagles’ 15th attempt to defeat the vaunted 16-time state champions will happen Friday at Eagle Stadium in the Springfield News-Leader Game of the Week presented by Murney Associates, Realtors. Nixa (5-0) enters the game ranked No. 6 in the Class 5 Missouri Media Rankings, while Webb City (3-2) enters ranked No. 7 in Class 4.
Nixa coach Richard Rehagen served as an assistant for 13 years prior to accepting a promotion to head coach in 2008, which coincided with Webb City joining the Central Ozark Conference.
