WARRIORS BOUNCE BACK WITH PAA SWEEP!

After getting swept at Rainier on Saturday, the Warrenton Warriors basketball teams swept a key pair of home games over Portland Adventist Monday afternoon and night to reestablish their upper division status in the Lewis & Clark League.

Jordyn Holt became the all-time leading freshman scorer in Warrenton girls basketball history--with half of the league schedule and playoffs still remaining!--with 25 points as the Lady Warriors sprinted past the Cougars 60-44. The Warriors were dominating on the glass, outrebounding PAA 53-27 in the game, including a 29-6 edge on the offensive glass. Senior Audrey Dove led the rebounding effort with 13 boards to go with her eight points.

The Warriors boys scored the first eight points of the game and never trailed on the way to a 51-42 victory over the Cougars. Michael O'Casey scored six of Warrenton's first eight points, finishing with 13 points and 13 rebounds. Eric Gantenbein was 4-for-6 beyond the arc in a 16-point effort to lead all scorers.

The Warrior teams take on Catlin Gabel at home Friday to complete the first round of L&C League play, then travels to Clatskanie on Tuesday, Jan. 23 for a pair of games that will be broadcast live on SportsRadio 1230 ESPN.
