The Fairfield Lions didn’t stop believing in their Division IV SE District Final game against the Federal Hocking Lancers, so when the final buzzer sounded at the Ohio University Convocation Center, they were hoisting a district championship trophy for the first time in a decade.
The Fairfield Lions return to a familiar spot on the tournament trail this upcoming Friday night, as they will play in a fifth consecutive Division IV SE District championship game, and this season is the year they want a different result than the previous four.
The past two games to end the 2023 portion, and to begin the 2024 part, of this season’s schedule had the same result, that being the Fairfield Lions gaining wins in non-conference battles.
