The last meeting was a 25-20, 25-13, 16-25, and 25-16 win for Liberty, and this one should go the same way.</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"textColor":"primary"} --> <p class="has-primary-color has-text-color"><strong>District 10</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Strafford 19-8-1</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Vs.

Fair Grove has [player_tooltip player_id='171211' first='Kameron' last='Green'] and [player_tooltip player_id='495357' first='Allison' last='Findley'], while Conway has [player_tooltip player_id='123462' first='Gibby' last='Beckler'] and Katie Myers. Fair Grove has beaten everyone except El Dorado Springs, who they didn't play. Conway has lost to Fair Grove three times and has not played El Dorado Springs. El Dorado has lost to Stockton and beaten Stockton and Skyline. After all this, it should come down to Fair Grove and Conway in the finals. Look for Fair Grove to pull out a 3-1 district championship win.</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
