Playing its last home game, Christian Liberty's girls basketball team faced it toughest test of the regular season against visiting Lake Forest Academy. "I told the girls this is the toughest game we'll see before regionals," said Chargers coach Steve Rowland. "We just wanted to see how we matched up." Unfortunately for the Chargers, they had to match up for nearly 11 minutes without junior Shelbi Hernandez, due to foul trouble. That allowed the visiting Caxys to make a big 26-7 run to close the first half en route to a 51-27 nonconference victory.
Silent treament in Webber’s first win at Warren Nov 20, 2012 12:00 AM
Future Ryan Webber wins will undoubtedly be greeted with applause from Warren's boys basketball fans. Tuesday night, however, there was nary a cheer after Webber earned his first victory as Blue Devils coach. Just before the start of the second half between host Warren and Lake Forest Academy, a fight broke out in the bleachers. After a long delay, which included both teams being sent to their locker rooms, spectators were instructed to exit the gym. When play finally resumed, after a delay that lasted 35 minutes, Warren slowly built on a 17-point halftime advantage and cruised to a 60-39 win, which evened the Blue Devils' record at 1-1 in the Thanksgiving tournament they are co-hosting with Mundelein. The second half was played in front of only coaches who were scouting the game, game officials and media.

On Wednesday, Warren lived up to expectations in its season opener against Lake Forest Academy in the first round of the Waukegan Thanksgiving tournament.
