Each week, OzarksSportsZone.com released our local girls basketball CoxHealth Power Rankings. Like our other power rankings, these rankings are based on dominance by Class, not head-to-head matchups.
Abby Oliver went for 22 points and Hayley Frank scored 25 of her own Saturday inside Mizzou Arena, pushing Strafford to an 80-39 turbo-clocked victory over Whitfield in Saturday’s Class 3 girls state championship.
It’s a pretty site, watching Abby Oliver pull up from deep. Her’s is one of the purest strokes in all Missouri and one that has put the wide-eyed senior on the precipice of history with just a single game to go in her memorable career.
Chalk held true in Wednesday’s Class 3 District 11 semifinals. No. 1 Strafford rolled over No. 4 Springfield Catholic in the early game, and No. 2 Clever held off a late flurry from No. 3 Fair Grove in the nightcap.
Strafford's win streak hits 40, Thayer still No. 4 despite district seeding snub and Pierce City hits OKC in a week that saw just a single loss by our Top 15.
