Warriors Win DIL Championship In 1982
Harrington and Hiebert Named Co-MVP's

Under third year coach Frank Crumpacker, the 1981-82 Warriors won the Desert-Inyo League (DIL) south division with a 9-1 record.
The league championship was the first DIL title in five years (1976-77), and just the fourth title since joining the DIL in 1958.

For the season, the Warriors finished at 15-7, marking the tenth time in eleven years Tehachapi had an overall season winning record.

Bishop Union won the northern division of the DIL for their 11th straight DIL championship.

In the pre-league season, Tehachapi finished at 6-5. In the annual Kern County Tournament in Bakersfield, the Warriors went 2-1 to win
the Consolation Championship. After dropping the opening game to Shafter, Tehachapi came back to defeat both Maricopa and Kern Valley.

In the Bishop Tournament, the Warriors lost two straight games to Bishop and Shafter. The Shafter loss was the third straight time
the Warriors had lost to the Generals in the pre-season.

In league play, the Warriors coasted to the title with a number of dominating wins. The lone loss was a one point defeat to the Desert Scorpions
in overtime in Tehachapi. The only other close game was a narrow two point win over Boron.

In post-season play, the Warriors played host to the Paso Robles Bearcats. Paso Robles stunned the Warriors on the mountain, 72-53,
to end the season. Scott Hiebert led the Warriors in scoring with 16 points.

For their outstanding play throughout the season, Kelly Harrington and Todd Hiebert were named the Co-MVP's of the team by the Warrior coaching staff.
