WARRIORS STIFLE MAVERICKS, NOW 18-3

For the second time this season, the Warrenton Lady Warriors completely overmatched winless Riverdale in a 65-15 victory.

With substitution platoons every four minutes or so, the Warriors rotated all of their players into the game for significant minutes, with only one player not in uniform for the game.

Freshman sharpshooter Brooklyn Campbell stayed in a civilian uniform, her minutes being reserved for Warrenton's J.V. game against Jewell's varsity. That didn't stop Campbell from knocking down a pregame 3-pointer that allowed the Warriors to accumulate $6.00 for every made free throw, courtesy of a local business.

Pam Wilkins and Emily Ogren led the Warriors with 11 points each and Jordane Marxer chipped in with 10. Six Warriors had at least five rebounds in the game, led by Lesleanne Hayward with 10. Marxer had six steals.

Leading 20-6 after scoring 11 straight points to close the first quarter, the Warriors held Riverdale scoreless for the entire second period, outscoring the Mavericks 19-0 in the frame, while holding them to 2-for-22 shooting in the first half.

All ten Warriors who played scored in the game. Senior Liz Hampton had six points and 10 rebounds to lead Riverdale.

The Warriors remain a half-game behind Rainier in the Lewis & Clark League standings, improving to 11-1 in league and 18-3 overall. The Columbians also won last night, defeating Catlin Gabel 39-24.

Warrenton hosts Vernonia Friday night, then travels to Portland Adventist on Saturday before facing Rainier at home on Tuesday night.
