For three years, my team, the Lady Warriors have huddled in the middle of the gym after every practice and shouted, 1-2-3-STATES! Now that we have finally made it, we had to think of a different chant.
Since I was a freshman, the Lady Warriors have been sectional champions. This year, we played Midland Trail in the first round of sectionals, beating them 80-25. We were all eager for the next game, the sectional championship against Fayetteville. However, we played one of our best games of the season with a 80-35 win. Our anxiousness turned into total energy that would propel us through our regional championship game and by playing 'team ball' we downed Greater Beckley Christian. We were regional champs for the first time in years.
We, (the Lady Warriors) were ranked fourth of the elite eight, and are scheduled to challenge Parkersburg Catholic at the State Tournament in Charleston on Wednesday at 9:00 pm. Meanwhile we are busy preparing for the most important game we have faced the entire basketball season.
Come and support us in our first game of the State Tournament. The cheering and support of our fans is greatly appreciated.
