Coach Scheef: “I was very pleased with how we played tonight. We played very well early, and then hit about a 3 minute stretch in which we did not play well and Calhoun was able to cut the lead to 4. From that point on, we played really good basketball. Max had an incredible second quarter shooting the ball and played great defense out top for us. Greg Milliken got us off to a great start. He is so strong around the basket, that not many people can stop him down low. I am very happy with how we are improving each time out.”

Max Cook led Wahoo with 28 points on 5-6 shooting from behind the arc. Cook added 9 steals and 4 assists. Greg Milliken had 19 points. Tyler Kavan scored 10 fourth quarter points. Cole Barry had 8 points and 7 rebounds. Sean Lindgren added 8 boards. The Warriors forced 31 Pioneer turnovers and out rebounded them 39-23.

The Warriors improve to 4-1 and will travel to Centennial to face the Broncos on Saturday night.
