CCS Lady Warriors 32, Southwest Christian School 55
In only their second loss of the season, the CCS Lady Warriors fell to a competitive SCS team, a TAPPS 5A team, who is now sitting at 21-1 on their season thus far.
The Lady Warriors battled hard, and led the entire first half of the game. By the second half their tanks were near empty, and foul trouble, including losing junior guard Jersey Davila and sophomore post Kate Buchanan in the 4th sealed their fate.
Despite the rough game senior Hena Spahic still came away with double digits scoring 13 points, and close behind was senior Elaina Buchanan with 9 points. Buchanan also pulled down 12 rebounds and tied Davila for a team high 4 steals.
