The Warrior guys had played Fulton County Community Christian School in the very beginning of the season in the Grace Academy tournament and had won easily. They came ready for a good game, and a good game they got. From tip off to the final buzzer, the game was under the Warriors control. FCCCS played a full court press which the guys broke quickly. The domination in passes, rebounds, shots, and defensive moves brought an easy win for the Warriors. The final score was 62-42.
Joel Kehr led the team with 15 points, 3 assists, and 2 steals. Toby McGrath came next with a double-double of 12 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal, and a block. Daniel Passarelli also scored 12 points along with 3 rebounds, 3 assists, and a steal. Josiah Carstens had 7 points, 2 boards, 5 assists, and 4 steals. Jonathan Pefley scored 6 points along with 6 rebounds, 2 assists, and 2 steals. Chris Leao had 4 points, 7 rebounds, and a block. Jason Kehr had a basket and 3 assists. Michael Pefley and Josiah Freese each had a basket each.

Fulton County Christian Academy (VG)
After a long ride up to Fulton County Cummunity Christian School, the varsity girls were ready to give it their best and secure a win for their last game of the season before the Erie tournament coming up in just a few days. They weren't disappointed as they led the entire game. The Warriors defense was tight and forced the Chargers to work hard for their shots. The Chargers couldn't stop the Warriors offense. Emily Passarelli had an individual season high in scoring, and Abby Leaman scored a very exciting three-pointer! The high scoring was impressive, because Fulton County isn't known for their forgiving rims. Unfortunately, a weak third quarter by the Warriors allowed the Chargers to creep up to the score of the Warriors, but wasn't enough to steal the game away. The Warriors kept the game in their control, taking the win of 33 to 21. Great season ladies!

Highland View Christian Academy (VB)
For the second time of the season the Warrior guys were plyaing Highland View Christian Academy. The first time the two teams played, the Warriors had won by around ten points, but they knew they had to play well to beat them again. The game started slow, the Warriors only having 10 to Highland View's 15 points at the end of the first quarter. The second quarter was just as slow, though the Warriors defense kept Highland View to only 15 points, scoring 4 points themselves put them down 14-15 at halftime. In the second half, the Warriors finally started playing like they had come to play basketball. Hitting shots and being scrappy on defense secured a good win of 53 to 34 to finish the game.
Joel Kehr led the team with 18 points, 2 assists, 2 steals, and a board. Josiah Carstens had a great game with 13 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists, 5 steals, and a block. Chris Leao had 6 points, 10 rebounds, 3 steals, and 5 blocks. Daniel Passarelli was right behind him with 5 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists, 3 steals, and a block. Toby came next scoring 4 points along with 12 rebounds, and an assist, steal, and block. Jonathan Pefley had 3 points and 4 boards. Michael Pefley scored a basket along with a rebound and steal. Jason Kehr contributed a basket as well.

The Warrior ladies had a surprise, last minute game against the Highland View Christian Academy Tartans. From last years experience with the Tartans, the Warriors came expecting a very tall, large, physical team. Other than one big girl and the physical play expected, the Warriors were pleasantly surprised and ended up having one of the best games so far for the season! Despite a very rough first quarter (the score being 12-0 in the Tartans favor), the Warriors dug deep and played excellent the remainder of the game. Lydia Flynn made not only the Warriors first basket for the night, but also her first personal varsity basket early in the 2nd quarter! That got the girls going, with Ana Flynn also having an amazing night as she hit several three-pointers! The Warriors shocked the Tartans, because they had closed the gap at half time to just one basket at the end of the third quarter. During the fourth quarter, the Warriors played to win, fighting for every loose ball and bringing down the rebounds (Gabrielle and Emily had 47 rebounds combine for the night!) With Amanda hitting an amazing three just in time, the Warriors headed into overtime. With the score being so close, overtime held many fouls. The Warriors and Tartans had a scoring match, both teams scoring back to back. Unfortunately, the Warriors ran out of time and lost the game by a basket, the final score being 34-32.

Carlisle Christian Academy (VB)
As this was their third game of the season against Carlisle, the varsity boys were ready for a good game and easy win. The past two games had been easy, with all the players getting much playing time both times. This game would prove no different. The boys quickly took the lead and ran with it, putting their score far ahead and getting all the players playing time.
Several of the guys had been asking for Coach Ron to put in all the post players and then all the guards for fun. As this was the perfect opportunity, Toby, Chris, Jonathan, Michael, and Zach all got in at the same time, with Toby as the offical point guard (but everyone taking their turn). They did an excellent job. :) After that the guards got their turn to fame, with Josiah Carstens at 5 along with Daniel, Jason, Joel, and Josiah Freese and Andrew subbed for each other. It was a very fun game, one that made many memories. The final score was 73 to 35. Great game Warriors!

Carlisle Christian Academy (VG)
The Warrior ladies knew they were in for a tough game against the Carlisle Christian Academy Crusaders because of the previous game played against them. The Warriors went directly into a box-in-one defense with Emily Passarelli on their best player. With Emily on her, the girls struggled down low on defense as Emily wasn't there to help out, resulting in many baskets by the Crusaders to put them in a quick lead. Although the first half was hard, the girls began to get their rhythm in the second half, as is their pattern. Despite the Warriors efforts to close the large deficit from the first half, they were unable to close the gap by the end of the game. The ladies played hard, but were disappointed that the final score was 48-21.
Carlisle Christian Academy (MSB)
As the middle school boys last game of the season, they were ready to play Carlisle Christian Academy. There's a little history here, see last season the boys played Carlisle in their last game, and they won by three points. It was their only win of the season. This season the boys have played Carlisle twice already, and won handily both times. So this was a big game, everyone expected a big win for the last game of the season, especially considering Carlisle was the opposing team. So the game began. Things started as expected, the Warriors took control pretty instantly. The boys got great outside shots and made strong passes inside, resulting in easy layups. Scrappy defense was also shown, getting steals, rebounds, and blocks. The score at halftime was 19-14, with all the players already getting to play in the game. Starting the third quarter didn't seem much different, the starters starting out to put the lead up a little more and then the subs getting playing time, continuing to put the Warriors lead higher and higher. Somewhere in there though the Crusaders started creeping back into the game, putting the score a closer and closer until it was back to back scoring by both teams. With the intensity so high and the clock counting down, the Warriors scrapped to try and put the lead back into their hands. With two seconds left on the clock, the Warriors were up by one, the score being 42-41, and accidently committed a foul, putting one of the Crusaders on the foul line, potentially to win the game. With everyone's breath held, the whole gym watched in silence as the first shot was taken...a miss. Depending on a make or miss for the next shot, the Warriors were looking at potential overtime or a win by one. The second shot was taken, which was missed again. The Warriors threw in the ball, hoping to run the last two seconds off for the win, and everyone cheered as the buzzer sounded with a close but definite win by the Warriors. It was a very exciting last game of the season, a game which everyone played, and yet it was a nailbiter till the last buzzer sounded. Great season boys, way to make us all proud!
