Due to the threat of inclement weather Saturday night, the Houston Lady Tigers’ district championship game has been moved forward to 1 p.m. Saturday.
HHS, which topped Willow Springs 55-52 in Wednesday’s semifinals, is seeking the program’s second district championship. The Lady Tigers (18-9) won their lone title in 2004.
Licking (24-4) is the two-time defending Class 3 District 10 champions. The Lady Wildcats trounced Mountain Grove 44-22 in the semis.
Licking won all three regular-season matchups with Houston. The last was a 40-38 victory Jan. 31 in the championship game of the Mansfield Invitational.
The boys’ district championship game between Licking and Liberty was also moved forward. It will tip off around 2 p.m.
