Congratulations to the JV softball team for an amazing come from behind win yesterday against Douglas County. The Lady Warriors were trailing the entire game until the last inning when the bats came alive and the girls rallied to victory. The Warriors defeated the Huskies by a score of 9 to 8. Good job ladies. Way to fight back!

Attention Warriors: Come on out to the AHS tennis courts and cheer your team as they go up against Cherry Creek. JV plays at Powell.
