SPRINGFIELD — It’s one of the best weekends of high school football in Missouri. The district championship pits some of the state's best teams against each other. The winner heads to the next round of the playoffs, while the loser heads home. After going 4-1 in our picks last week, we're 52-12 overall. Here are our predictions for district championship high school football action in the Springfield area. All kickoffs are set for 7 p.m. Friday unless noted. No. 2 Ozark (5-5) at No. 1 Nixa (9-1) Nixa hosts Ozark for the Class 6 District 5 Championship game. The Eagles defeated the Tigers 45-28 on Sept. 25. Ozark has improved greatly since that game.
