For the first time in several weeks, the Fairfield Lady Lions are not ranked this week in the Division III Associated Press Ohio Girl’s High School Basketball Poll.

Fairfield, 19-3 through games played Tuesday, was ranked as high as No. 12 for a couple weeks before dropping to No. 13 last week. The Lady Lions lost a Southern Hills Athletic Conference game at Peebles, 48-37, on Feb. 9, but have since rebounded with non-conference wins over Westfall, 49-18, and against Oak Hill on Monday, 51-31.

The Lady Lions’ other two loses came to Eastern Brown, currently ranked No. 7 in Division III. On Dec. 16, Eastern beat Fairfield in Leesburg, 54-42, and on Jan. 20 the Lady Lions lost at Eastern Brown High School, 56-38.
