Schuck on a Truck: Hannibal soccer team’s defensive backfield discusses chemistry, stinginess

HANNIBAL, Mo. — Fans of the Hannibal boys soccer team will have two opportunities this week to watch the record-setting Pirates in person, and those who do should take note of how stingy the defense continues to be.

Last Saturday, in wrapping up the North Central Missouri Conference championship, the Pirates posted their single-season record 13th shutout in a 2-0 victory at Marshall. Hannibal is 21-2 this season and has allowed only 11 goals.

Senior goalkeeper Clayton Neisen and the rest of the Pirates’ backline jumped in the bed of Muddy River Sports Editor Matt Schuckman’s pickup to discuss their chemistry, stinginess and success for this episode of “Schuck on a Truck,” brought to you by Shottenkirk Toyota.
