We have our first district champion of the year as the Rogersville girls defeat Marshfield 60-51 behind 27 points from Najee Donson. The Lady Wildcats jumped all over Marshfield in the first quarter to the tune of 22-11. The Lady Jays chipped away only down by 6 entering the fourth, but couldn’t get over the hump. The #4 seeded Lady Wildcats will next play a week from tonight at Lebanon High School against the winner of the district 9 tournament in Owensville. Most likely state-ranked #2 St. James.
Other district title matchups were set last night. On the girls side, in class 4, #1 Webb City and #3 Nevada will meet in Nevada. In class 5 district 10 at Lebanon, top seed Jefferson City will meet third seeded Waynesville. The anticipated clash of state ranked #1 Nixa & #2 Kickapoo was set in Ozark. And one boys final was set as class 5 district 5 top seeds Central and Hillcrest will get a rematch in Willard.

Got to catch a great game tonight and one of the better small school players in the area with Pierce City and Dietrick Sooter taking on the Southwest Trojans in Washburn. In a game that was close throughout, the free throw shooting of the Eagles made the difference as Pierce City wins 76-69. For the night, Pierce City was 19 of 24 from the line including 11 of 12 in the second half. Sooter lead 4 players in double figures with 26 including 5 3-pointers. For Southwest, Levi Roberts had 23 and Josh Hartin 21 but it wasn’t enough to keep the Eagles from winning their fourth game in a row in Washburn.
The highlight of big school play came as Hillcrest snapped Kickapoo’s 65 game Ozark Conference win streak dropping them 62-43. The Hornets held Alex Hall to just 5 points on the night and were lead by James Taylor’s 17 point and 14 rebounds. Hillcrest also got 17 from Derek Chaney and 16 from Dorial Green to go to 7-2 on the year.
