From Coach James Babinec
Saturday the Eisenhower Warriors Boys 7th A team paired up against Hays and Great Bend.
In the first match up against Hays the Warriors started slowly trailing by 13 at the half. After switching up the defense in the 3rd, Eisenhower held the Falcons scoreless throughout the 3rd only to give up a desperation shot at the buzzer. The Warriors continued to play strong defensively in the fourth, but the opening half deficit proved too much to overcome. Hays won the game 31-22.
Ethan Olmstead led the Warriors with 9 pts followed by Kye Morris 6, Kale Miller 3 with Bren Kappelmann and Adrain Gonzales adding to a piece.
The second game against Great Bend saw the Warriors take control in the first quarter leading 11-0. A free throw early in the second gave the Warriors a 12-0 lead. Great Bend then began to chip away throughout each quarter, narrowing the lead until finally in the fourth taking the lead for the first time at 29-28. The momentum shift and foul trouble late in the fourth paved the way for the Panthers to pull away from the Warriors. Final tally was Great Bend 43 and the Warriors 29.
The Warriors were schedule to play at Garden City Kenneth Henderson on Monday. It was postponed because Garden City canceled school Monday.
