Jackson Sheads broke the goose egg for the Warriors in the 4th quarter as he fired a low offering at the net and beat goaltender Colin Ward. The goal was Sheads’ 48th in his high school career.
Junior, Sam Dickerson, played his 50th career varsity game Monday night, joining Cole Schumacher and Jackson Sheads as the only Warriors to accomplish the feat. Brennen Double, Finn Keenan, and R.J.
