The Fluvanna boys’ basketball team topped the Western Albemarle Warriors in Crozet on Saturday (Jan.16) in a close battle by a score of 65-61. Unfortunately, it was a different story when the Flucos hosted the Warriors on Jan. 22. The Warriors are tall and strong and they proved to be too much for the Flucos this time, as they won all four quarters and gradually pulled away to a 57-44 win.
The first quarter of the game was a seesaw affair. Fluco junior guard Maurice D’Alessandra had an early three-point basket and scored eight in the quarter. Senior forward John Rittenhouse had five. Those were all the points the Flucos scored in the quarter. The Flucos took a 13-12 lead late in the quarter when junior guard Kobe Edmonds hit D’Alessandra with an excellent pass for an easy lay-in. Unfortunately, the Warriors ended the quarter with five quick points for a 17-13 lead, that they never relinquished.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (WVIR) - One Albemarle High School student is stepping up to the plate after dealing with her own challenges and seeing others struggle with mental health during the pandemic.
Sophomore Anna Rosner developed a new award-winning app called “Feel Better” which aims to help teens focus on the positive.
“It just brings positivity, even if the day wasn’t so good, it’s something that made it a little bit better,” Rosner said.
