Lutheran High Westland started off the

with a bang! After taking a quick 10-0 lead against Plymouth Christian in
the first 3 minutes of the game they never lost the lead. Plymouth
Christian did stick a round, cutting the lead to five at half, 25-20. The Warriors came out and started the second half as they did the
first and took the lead by 15, played great team defense, and won their first of the year.
Lutheran High Westland takes their first loss
of the year in a close one.
After, being down by 5 to start the first quarter it was back and forth battle,
but rebounding was the thing that hurt Westland the most giving up 10 offensive
boards in the first half and and the end of the half being down by one 25-26. Westland came out strong
in the 3rd taking the lead by four,
but then poor shooting caused the Warriors to fall behind. Trailing by
6 to start the 4th quarter the Warriors could never regain the lead and lost by
four.
Lutheran High Westland takes their second loss
of the year in another close one. It was a very physical and aggressive
game with both teams going back and forth basket after basket. There was a
great effort given by both teams but in the end the Warriors lost.
Rebounding was not the cause, however, as the Warriors pulled down 29 offensive
rebound and 45 rebounds over all. Free throws were
the biggest problem with the Warriors. Shooting 5 of 18 from the line and
losing by only one point shows how free throws can either win or lose you the
game. In the last 5 seconds the Warriors were able to get the ball down
the court for a 15 ft. jumper for the win, but the shot missed and the buzzer
sounded with the Warriors still down by one.
Shooting was the Warriors problem again.
After falling behind early in the first quarter, the Warriors were not able to
climb back in to the game. Inter-City Baptist did not seem to have the
same problem as they shot about 50% from the three point line and shot
over 40% from the field. At half time the Warriors were down 17 points and
were 9 for 31 from the field.
The
Warriors put themselves back on track with a win over Huron Valley Lutheran. After
the long Christmas
break, it was good for the warriors to get a win. The Warriors led by 11
at half time and were determined not to let the Hawks back in the game. The Warriors marched all over the Hawks in the 3rd
quarter outscoring them 19 - 1.
The
Warriors start the conference off right with a win making them 1-0 in the
conference. It was a great team effort and great free throw shooting that
helped them get the victory. At half the Warriors were up by 10 but the
Cosmos kept hanging around and cut the lead to 6 at the end of the
third. The Warriors ran away with it in the 4th quarter by owning the
boards, fast breaking, and making some clutch free throws.
The
Warriors move on to become 2-0 in the conference with a win over University
Liggett.
After half time the Warriors were only up by ten, but they put the Knights away early in the third quarter and there was no looking back.
The Warriors were up by 25 at the end of the third
quarter and they rode it out for the victory.
The
Warriors fall in a close one to the Trojans of Clarenceville to move their
conference record to 2-0 and 4-4 overall. The Warriors were up for
most of the first half and went out at half time up by
4. In the third quarter, Clarenceville couldn't miss and took the
lead. The
Warriors were down by 6 at the end
of the third. The Warriors got within two points of the Trojans, could
not regain the lead, and had to foul as time ran down. Too many missed shots at
the end cost the Warriors the victory.
The
Warriors pulled out a win in another close battle with the Cranes. The
Warriors started the game off with a big run taking the lead by seven, but poor
shooting struck the Warriors and they went ice cold shooting 27% for the rest of
the game. After the first half Cranbrook had the lead, but the Warriors
fought hard and stuck around. It was not until late in the fourth quarter
that the Warriors had a little run to put them back in the lead. Going
10-14 from the free throw line in the fourth quarter helped the Warriors get the
win and become 3-1 in the conference.
The
warriors win another one, but it wasn't pretty. The Warriors just let
Clawson stick around the whole game, but the Warriors never lost the lead.
Turnovers and free throw shooting were very poor for the Warriors. The
only positives out of this one were rebounding and shooting. However, with
this victory the Warriors move to 4-1 in the conference.
The
Warriors fall short in a close one against the Mustangs. The Warriors
fought back to tie the game before the fourth quarter, but couldn't make the
shots when they needed them the most. The Warriors now fall to 4-2 in the
conference. It is a tough loss for the Warriors, because it could now jeopardize
the position of the Warriors in the conference tournament depending on how they
finish out the conference.
The
Warriors lose to an outstanding Harper Woods team, who have proven them selves
to be the best in the conference. The Warriors loss moves them to 4-3 in
the conference.
The
Warriors did not start off so hot in this one. They fell behind fast and
struggled to stick around, but got back to within ten at the end of the first
half. They were determined to come out big in the second half and that is
just what they did. The Warriors fought back to take the lead by 2 at the
end of the third and kept up the defensive intensity in the fourth to get the
victory. The Warriors out scored the Crusaders 44-29 in the second
half. The victory clinched the 3rd seed spot in the conference tournament
and gave the them an overall conference record of 5-3.
The
Warriors lose the first game in the conference tournament to the Mustangs.
The Warriors started it off with an early lead, but once they fell behind, they
were never able to get it back. The Warriors are hoping to get 5th
place overall as their conference record falls to 5-4.
Warriors
lose their second game of the conference tournament and now are playing for 7th
place. Shooting was the Warriors biggest problem, after going 10-38 from
the field in the first half, the Warriors finished the game shooting
20-69. This loss moves them to 5-5 in the conference.
The
warriors came out and took a big lead early, and were up by 22 at the end of the
first quarter. The Warriors kept the lead the rest of the way to give them
their 6th victory in the conference. They got 7th in the tournament and
5th overall in the conference.
The
Warriors fall in another close one to Urban. After being up most of the
game, in the fourth quarter the Warriors couldn't make a shot when they needed
it and made to many turnovers, letting Urban back into the game. Once they
lost the lead they were unable to get it back.
This
was Senior Night for the Warriors and they wanted to have their last home game
be one to remember. The Seniors were Rob Considine, Kevin Frusti, Kevin
Greening, Kyle Neumann, Paul Rosin, and Chelston Ross. The Seniors started
it off right with a quick three points to start off the game and it was smooth
sailing form there for the Warriors to give them their 10th win of the
year.
The
Warriors came out pretty slow and flat in the first quarter, which kept the
Warriors down early and they struggled to be only down by a few at half.
The Warriors tried to come out strong in the second half and they were able to
get to the free throw line enough to stick around, but the Warriors shot 5 for
31 from the field in the second half and were unable to get the victory.
The
Warriors came out to a slow start in the first few minutes but finally picked
up the intensity in the second half. They took a big lead and were able to hold on.
They got the victory despite foul trouble and some second half turnovers.
It was a nice team victory and now the Warriors move on the play Agape in the
District Semi-Finals on Thursday at 6:30.
The
Warriors came out on fire going up by and early ten and knocking down their
first three triples. After that, there was no turning back, especially
after coming out in the second half and scoring 27 points in the third
quarter. The Warriors head to the district championship after not making
it for the past few years.
The
Warriors, despite knowing they were going to play one of the best teams in the
state, came out with much intensity in the first half. The Warriors were
able to keep it close the whole first half, but despite their efforts the were
unable to keep it up in the second half. They fell behind early and were
unable to get back. The Warriors end the season with a winning record,
12-11.
