Del Norte also earned a Northcoast Sectionbasketball win at home and played tough againstone of the best teams in the state before falling in ahome playoff matchup.

The Warriors looked strong before Big 5 playbegan, losing only two games. They faced a challengein the conference from defending champion Arcata,who defeated them twice in the regular season, in-cluding the regular season finale to cause a tie inthe Big 5. The teams met again the next night inArcata for a tiebreaker rematch that would decidethe top seed in the Dick Nicali postseason tournamentand who would earn the automatic berth in theNCS playoffs.
