Warriors overwhelm Huskies at MSR event

Cedar Valley Christian may have given the Washington Warriors a good game last year when the Huskies had five seniors in their starting lineup and the Warriors were coming off a winless campaign with a brand-new coach.

Not this year, however. Heavens no.

Washington blitzed the young Huskies, 91-7, in the final game of the Metro Sports Report.com Classic at Johnson Hall Saturday.

The Warriors have a collection of good athletes and good shooters and look like a club that could have a fine season. The Huskies, by contrast, are starting basically from scratch after finishing 14-9 last year with a veteran squad.

"It's going to be a successful season," he said during practice last Friday. "We're going to have good kids, they're going to do a great job.

"I don't know if we're going to win any games, but they're going to go out and give it a good effort," he said. "And we're going to try and come up with game plans that give us a chance. It's a neat group of kids."
