Warwick Warriors

On Friday, in their league playoff-clinching victory on the road at E-town, Warwick’s win was memorable in another way as it saw Warriors’ senior Ya’Majesty Washington eclipse the 1,000-point milestone over the course of his four-year varsity career.  Aside from being the 10th Warwick player in program history to do so following his inclusion into […]

As we come down the final stretch of the regular season in the LL, there is still a lot to be determined in the final week of league play. Let’s take a look at where things stand before games tip on Thursday, January 29th. As always, views and opinions expressed in this column represent my […]

Since we’re all likely to be snowed in over the next couple of days, we have the entertainment piece covered. Here’s a replay of our livestream game from Friday night’s overtime thriller between Warwick and Cocalico where the Warriors ultimately overcame a sizable halftime deficit to later go on and win in overtime, 60-51, a […]

Technically, the playoffs don’t start until February 7th. But those are merely semantics.  This Friday night, LLHoops is excited to bring you an early taste of postseason play as Warwick travels to Cocalico in a game with massive implications as both the Warriors and Eagles currently stand tied with E-town inside the Section Two standings, […]

There are road games and then there are road games. Like the one that the Penn-Trafford Warriors took part in on Friday. Yeah, almost the very textbook definition of a R-O-A-D-T-R-I-P. Capital letters indeed essential for added emphasis. As the crow flies (or the jet flies more accurately), the distance between Harrison City, Pennsylvania, the […]

      “The Team of the Decade.” How does one achieve such a distinction? Admittedly, it’s a bit of an inexact science in a way. Sometimes, it’s based purely on intuition and what your gut has to say about it. Ala, which programs routinely step up in the biggest of moments and routinely deliver […]

Both Warwick and Cedar Crest have a ton of size and depth. I thought that was the biggest factor in each teams win last night, outside of talent and execution. Who has more left in the tank down the stretch may factor into the final outcome again tomorrow Both games were within a single point […]

First things first – my round one predictions were a little off, and that’s putting it nicely. I picked the Braves over the Warriors, had the Barons over the Buckskins, and in general predicted scoring totals that were too high. That said, I think the analysis was good even if the conclusions were mostly wrong […]

Article by David Kehler   Trailing 46 to 25 early in the fourth quarter to Warwick, Octorara launched a furious rally fueled by pressure defense but fell just short in a Lancaster-Lebanon League playoff quarterfinal on Monday night in Lititz.  Host Warwick, which led from the second minute of the game, held on for a […]

Section 2 and Section 3 ended up exactly as I thought when I surveyed the landscape at the mid-way point of league play, so catch up on those articles if you want a little more insight into these teams. This is the first of 4 posts previewing each of the Round 1 LL League Play […]

You know that old cliché used in sports? The one that says, “You want to be peaking at just the right time?” Well, yeah, even here in the world of Lancaster-Lebanon League boys’ basketball in the year 2025, there are indeed some teams that seem to be prescribing to that notion with the season now […]

Coming into the season, if we would have assumed that this would’ve been the matchup of all matchups that could potentially decide the eventual fate of Lancaster-Lebanon League boys’ basketball Section Two play as it relates to the 2024-25 season, it certainly didn’t seem all that farfetched of a notion. To their credit, the Warwick […]

Editor’s Note: For the games that I believe are worthy to talk about, I will be doing an Instant Classics series showcasing the games of the year for both the Keystone Division and the LL games I will be attending. I hope you enjoy the series and let me know if you would like to […]

For anyone tasked with the assignment of trying to make prognostications as for how this year of Lancaster-Lebanon League boys’ basketball year ultimately figured to take shape and who the favorites might be prior to the start of the season, it would be a bit of an unenviable task quite frankly. Section One? Good luck […]

In their Monday night home win over Conestoga Valley, Warwick senior Caleb Johnsen hit the 1,000-point career milestone. In doing so, Johnsen becomes the 9th Warrior in program history to join the exclusive fraternity, and is the first Warwick player to do so since Chris Fairbanks in 2005, who hit the mark on the final […]
