Fallbrook High Warriors Boys Basketball First Winning Season in 5 years

By David A. Willauer-Contributing Writer-Fallbrook High School-Fallbrook, CA-Tuesday, January 21, 2020-After 4 straight losing seasons 2 under current head coach Ryan Smith, knows what it takes to build the Fallbrook Boys Basketball program to a winning season. After a 2 game losing streak to Escondido and Ramona, the Warriors came back to their old form as they found a way to win as they defeated the Golden Eagles of San Pasqual High School under current head coach and former Duke great Eric Meek by a 65-55 score games and tonight they proved themselves after trailing 14-10 after the first period.

Fallbrook Warriors Boys Basketball Coach Ryan Smith: "We're an improved team and handled adversity on how to win games while on the court." "Everyone contributes so we can start winning games, we led 37-36 we sometimes forget to do small projects like how to set in our 1-3-1 defensive zone, miscommunications on how to do well on our offense." "In the 2nd half we shot the ball better for us to win games." "

"For us to improve with a winning season is to keep a better mentality on yourself as the culture is setting in learning to play hard in every basketball game no matter if your up or down by 15 points keep a straight outlook for the team." Joel Calhoun and Cooper Sherman are the 2 leaders who stepped up for us and average 20 points per game. "The Valley League is competitive we had Escondido and Ramona who gave us battles, I hope this win will help us to improve every game this season."


Joel Calhoun for Fallbrook Warriors led with 27 points vs. San Pasqual: "Playing San Pasqual is always a conference battle every year that coach does a good job on the scouting last year we had a 1-25 record but this year we are proving who we are and playing as a team along with pulling out the 50/50 games In the first half, we had a hard time finding our groove, we are stepping up together as a team which gets the ball rolling for us.


With the win the Fallbrook Warriors 13-5 as they were led by Joel Calhoun with 27, Cooper Sherman contributed with 18 Yoni Villagran 12. Fallbrook will take on Mission Vista on 1-24-20. The Golden Eagles of San Pasqual were led by Mason McCreary with 20 points and 15 by Daniel Palmer, will be at Escondido to take on the Cougars. Tapoff is 7 PM
