The Warrior girls middle school team took to the court against the Lady Rams on Monday night. Even though they won in their last meeting, the Warriors knew this would be no easy win. Starting for the Warriors were: Kara Brown, Kirsten Blickenstaff, Mckenzie Quick, Joanna Hughes and Gabrielle Freese. These girls held the NLCS Rams to zero points in the first quarter and well into the second quarter. They played hard defensively. Kara Brown and Joanna Hughes each had 1 steal and 1 defensive rebound.
Joanna Hughes led the team in blocks with 3 for the night. Maggie Quick, who came in during the second quarter led the team in points. Kathryn Romanchuk was second in scoring for the night.
Emily Passarelli played stellar defense and grabbed 5 rebounds during the match up. There was much excitement during the night as Amanda Stewart hit her first bucket of the season.
Maggie Quick sank a basket at the buzzer bringing the final score to 14-7. The Warriors came out on top! The Middle School girl Warriors are now 7 and 0 for the season. They will face Adams County Christian Academy on Thursday night.
The boys played New Life Christian School for the second time in just 10 days. The Rams were off their game the first time around and the Warriors knew this would be a much different game. And they were right! Despite the better playing by the Rams, the Warriors still emerged victorious with a 28-24 victory.
By playing steady offense throughout the game with a few high energy spurts here and there and switching to a box-and-one defense in the second half, the Warriors continued in their winning ways. On offense, Chris Lamont led all scorers with 11 points, with Josiah Carstens and Christopher Leao contributing 5 each.
Rounding out the scoring was John Koffman with 3 points and Jacob Hughes and Nathan Williams each with 2. On the defensive side, John Koffman and Caleb Abel played real Warrior defense against the Rams stellar point guard, shutting him down in the second half to just two free throws and a late basket. The Warriors are now 6-0 and take on Adams County Christian Academy on January 29
