By Connor McCannTimes-UnionWARSAW — Without question, the biggest game in Warsaw football history was played Friday night at Fisher Field. The stakes were simple: win, and head down to Indianapolis to represent the northern half of Indiana in the state championship game. After disposing of the No. 1 and No. 2 5A teams in the state the two previous weeks, the Tigers once again had their hands full with No. 3 Merrillville. Once again, Warsaw didn’t blink.

By Connor McCannTimes-UnionDUNLAP — Revenge is a dish best-served cold. A month and a half ago, Warsaw football led Concord, the No. 1 5A team in the state 17-0 at halftime before the Minutemen staged a furious comeback late to escape with a 28-24 victory to remain undefeated. Friday, the two teams met at Jake Field again, this time with a sectional championship on the line. As was the case the first time around, the Tigers played a great game, keeping it close throughout.

Undefeated in Three Rivers Conference play so far this season, the Manchester boys basketball team had a pivotal game against Maconaquah on Friday night.

It came down to the final minute, but the Squires were able to take home the gold with an 80-75 win.

I feel like it’s never a bad idea to start out a column with a little bit of honesty. I’ll start this week’s off with a confession. I’ve blown off starting to write this for as long as I could. Not for your standard procrastination reasons, but because this is the last Can Connor Cover? of the season and I’m not quite ready to say goodbye. I love writing this column every single week. I love talking about football, movies and everything in between. We’ve had some great times this season.
