The Sioux North High School (SNHS) Warriors Senior Boys Basketball Team has punched their ticket to the NWOSSA Championship.
SNHS hosted the NORWOSSA AA Division Court Sport Championships on Friday, Feb. 20.
The Warriors earned a bye into the final where they defeated the Dryden Eagles 52-44.
Head Coach Shawn Hordy shared, “We had a good season, finishing in top spot to earn the much needed bye into the finals. Dryden gave us all we could handle jn the first half and they were even up by quite a bit. We made a few adjustments and picked up our gameplay that chipped away at the lead. Then, in the fourth, our rebounding and fast break helped us pull away and get the win.”
SNHS will host the NWOSSA Championship on Feb. 25 and 26, where the Warriors will face-off against Westgate Collegiate & Vocational Institute Tigers in a best of three series for a chance to advance to OFSAA, the provincial
