Eagles fall to District Champs Thayer

Houston High School hosted the 2022 Class 3 District 10 tournament last week. On Saturday, Feb 19, the Liberty Eagles faced the Licking Wildcats in the first round.

He missed the first free throw then sank the game winning free throw for the Eagles. The final score was 56-55.
The Eagles entered the semi-finals to face the first seed Thayer Bobcats. Thayer was victorious over Liberty, 62-41. The Bobcats moved on to the Championship game against the Hartville Eagles where they triumphed again 54 to 34.
