With a record of 9-6, the J.V. baseball team has begun the second half of the season.
The first league game against Saint Francis on March 15 proved to be an intense battle all the way until the end. The Lancers managed to gain a 10-4 lead over the Warriors that could not be overcome, resulting in a loss for Valley Christian.

April 6 brought another tough opponent: Archbishop Mitty. The teams faced off at West Valley College, and both fought hard. The game resulted in another loss for the J.V. team, with a close score of 5-7.

The Warriors were back at the top of their game on April 9 against Sacred Heart Cathedral. As the innings stretched on, the Warriors took the lead to make a strong finish with a final score of 15-12.
The J.V. players faced Bellarmine on April 12. Though a heated competition ended up in a 2-10 loss for the Warriors, they continued to be encouraged and look ahead for the games to come.

The rescheduled game against Saint Ignatius took place on April 14. Proving that the streak of bad luck was nothing more than a fluke, the Warriors battled out the innings to achieve a rewarding 7-1 win over the Wildcats.

Junipero Serra also proved to be no match for the Warriors; though the Padres fought hard, the J.V. Warrior team was able to come up with an easy 9-1 victory.

As the games continue, the Warriors remain confident in securing their place in the league; with hard work, dedication, and, of course, support from their fans, the players are sure to have a great season.
