Lady Warriors busy this week:  aggressive defense and team play is the theme for all teams this week.
Freshman: Were victorious in their first outing of the season beating Overland 35-24.  Led by the rebounding and scoring of Elianna Kearby, the freshman Lady Warriors played a balanced game on both ends of the floor.
Sophomore: "Suffocating defense" marked the debut of the Lady Warriors sophomore team in their defeat of Overland 72-13. Led by Allie Sheehans 3 point shooting on offense, our sophomore's showed a transition game that will be a challenge for other teams to keep up with this year. Their defense to points play was impressive.

JV: Face a closely matched game Thursday night against ThunderRidge at 5:30. Coach Hancock's talented combination of players will be a force in the Centennial league.
Varsity: In their first game of the ThunderRidge tournament against Doherty, the Varsity Lady Warriors set the pace with 17 steals, 32 rebounds and balanced scoring by Maria Haas with 16, Jennah Knafelc 16 and Mikaela Moore 14. Final Score: AHS 66-28. The tournament continues tonight against ThunderRidge at 7 pm.

Come out and support your Lady Warriors Basketball!
