Congratulations to the Varsity Girls Basketball team for their win last night in the Thunder Ridge Tournament over Ralston Valley 53-40. The win was a great team effort. The win moves the Lady Warriors in to a semi-final match-up with the host school Thunder Ridge tomorrow at 7:00 p.m. at Thunder Ridge. Come out and support your undefeated Lady Warriors Basketball team!



The JV Lady Warriors came out in their 2nd game with a BIG victory 56-6 shutting down their opponent completely in the 3rd and 4th quarters allowing zero points.  They had a strong press defense working well that had them up 36-6 at the half and they continued to play tough and aggressive through the second half of the game.  Way to go Lady Warriors!!  Please come out and support them in their next games Thursday at 5:30 against Rock Canyon and Saturday at 2:00 against Thunder Ridge with both games at Rock Canyon High School. 

For further details on any announcements see the Arapahoe web site. 
Warriors always take care of one another.
