Game 1 - Dec. 6, 2005

Lutheran Westland - 54
Ply. Christian - 38

Lutheran High Westland started off the season 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.  

_____________________________________________________

Game 2 - Dec. 8, 2005

Lutheran Westland - 47
So. Christian - 51

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.

_____________________________________________________

Game 3 - Dec. 13, 2005

Lutheran Westland - 61
Annapolis - 62

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.   

_____________________________________________________

Game 4 - Dec. 16, 2005

Lutheran Westland - 55
IC Baptist - 71 

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.

_____________________________________________________

Game 5 - Jan. 3, 2006

Lutheran Westland - 67
Huron Valley Lutheran - 47

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.

_____________________________________________________

Game 6 - Jan. 13, 2006

Lutheran Westland - 73
Hamtramck - 60

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.

_____________________________________________________

Game 7 - Jan. 17, 2006

Lutheran Westland - 65
University of Liggett - 43

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.

_____________________________________________________

Game 8 - Jan. 20, 2006

Lutheran Westland - 50
Clarenceville - 59

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.

_____________________________________________________

Game 9 - Jan. 27, 2006

Lutheran Westland - 42
Cranbrook - 38

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. 

_____________________________________________________

Game 10 - Jan. 31, 2006

Lutheran Westland - 52  
Clawson - 47

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.

Game 11 - Feb. 1, 2006

Lutheran Westland - 69

Lutheran Westland - 72
Lutheran Northwest - 67

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.

Game 19 - Mar. 2, 2006

Lutheran Westland - 51

Roeper - 31

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.
