The Lady Warriors insure a spot in the Wyoming 3A Girls Basketball State Championship Tournament. Worland started post season with a 13-4 record having won six in a row that included a 36-34 win over a Wyoming top ranked team in the Lander Valley Lady Tigers.
Worland would first take on a Lovell team that the Lady Warriors had already defeated twice in the regular season. 62-25 and 52-23. Ask any coach they will all say beating a team three times in a season is a very tall order.
The opening round of the Wyoming 3A Quad Championships was a elimination game. No matter your regular season record. Failure or success. No game mattered more.

The Lady Warrior “Playing For Hope” game would be played in front of the largest crowd of the season. Covid restrictions were partially lifted and 500 spectators would be able to attend.
Worland last lost on January 28th in Lander. It would be their largest loss, and least amount of points scored in a game.
Lander would come to Worland with a Conference 3-0 record and 12-2 overall and the number two ranking in Wyoming 3A girls basketball. The Lady Warriors had moved up to 5th with their 5 game win streak.
The Lady Warriors would come out with a 13 point first period with scoring provided by Darla Hernandez and her six points. Denali Jones had four, and Brooke Wright added a three pointer in the first shot of the game.

After a reschedule of a game that was originally suppose to be Saturday the Lady Warriors and Hot Springs County would meet on the court Tuesday in Warrior Gymnasium.
The Lady Warriors would start what will be their finally five games of the season. All five games are rematches. The Lady Bobcats were Worland’s first game of the season. The Lady Warriors won that game by ten 60-50. The Lady Bobcats were 3-11 coming into the game and 0-4 in the Northeast Quad.
Slow start for the Lady Warriors although they would never trail in the game. A game that would not have their starting point guard in Brooke Wright. Tymberlynn Crippen would take that roll. Crippen would hit a three pointer in the opening period as the Lady warriors would take a 14-7 first period lead.

After a game long scoring drought by the Lady Warriors on Thursday in Lander. The offensive explosion that Worland would display was exactly what was needed.
Not a single Lady Warrior had over nine points on Thursday. Different story on Saturday in Rawlins. The Lady Outlaws came into the game Saturday with a 2-7 record.
Tymberlynn Crippen was again on fire from the three point line. She made three consecutive three point shots in the first period. Brook Wright also made a three pointer to open the ball game. Worland had 19 points in the first period.
