Wahoo faced Syracuse for the third time of the season, this time in the State Tournament semi-finals. Although Coach Anderson voiced concern about trying to beat a good team three times, the result was pretty much the same as the first two outings. The Warrior defense kept Syracuse under 50 points and came away with a 60 - 43 victory. It appeared the Rockets might have a chance when Jason Glock left the game in the first quarter with three fouls. But Wahoo survived even though sophomore sub, Steve Volin, was playing on a bad ankle. Cliff Kreizel contributed 6 critical points in the third quarter to boost Wahoo to a 52 - 31 advantage.
