WVHS Wildcats Girls Varsity Basketball Team Wins Section IX Class AA Title

March 3, 2022

Congratulations to the Wildcats! The WVCSD varsity girl’s basketball team won the Section IX Class AA Championship on Tuesday night at SUNY Sullivan by a score of 35-24 over Monroe-Woodbury. 

Warwick entered the championship game with an 18-2-0 record, and on an 18-game winning streak. The Wildcats pulled away to an early 10-0 lead, shutting their opponents out in the first quarter. The Crusaders began to mount a comeback, but behind a 16-point night by junior standout Paige Girardi, the Wildcats held on and opened up their lead. Girardi scored the final bucket of the night for Warwick, putting the game safely out of reach of their opponent in the final minutes. 

The Section IX title is the first for the Wildcats since 2011. The win places Warwick in the first round of the Class AA State Tournament, which will take place on March 8 at Kingston High School. The Wildcats opponent for that game is yet to be determined.
