The Jefferson City Jays didn't get everything they wanted out of Saturday's CGI Duals Tournament. But that doesn't mean it wasn't a productive day.

"We wanted to win, we're not happy that we didn't," Jays coach Phil Cagle said after Jefferson City finished second in the inaugural event at Fleming Fieldhouse. "But the kids learned some things, we learned some things about the kids."

Jefferson City and Nixa were both 4-0 heading into the tournament's final dual. Nixa, on the strength of getting a forfeit because of an earlier injury and winning three one-point matches, topped Jefferson City 37-27 for the title.
