The Winters Warriors varsity boys basketball team hosted the Dixon Rams
on Tuesday, Jan. 14, and suffered a 78-56 non-league game loss. A slow
offensive start put the Warriors in a hole they couldn’t get out
of.

26 points on the board to lead the Warriors. John Botro scored 11 points,
Henry Nicholson scored five points, Eli Layne and T.J. Anderson each scored
four points, Chris Mayes scored three and Keli

led the Warriors once again with 23 points. Botro had a big game as well
with 16 points. Callison scored eight points and Mayes scored two points
for the Warriors.

a score of 56-39. Geerts put 18 points on the board, Botro had nine points

two points.
On Friday, Jan. 27, the Warriors overcame a very slow start to pickup

five and Callison scored four points for the Warriors.
