Aloha Warriors Football 34-33 Lebanon

One point was the difference Friday night, as Aloha's football team survived a 34-33 nail-biter over Lebanon to open the 2026 season at home in Aloha, Oregon. The Metro League (6A) Warriors took on the non-league visitor in what turned out to be one of the closest finishes you will see all fall. With the score seesawing throughout the game, Aloha found a way to hold on down the stretch, securing a gutsy victory that sets an encouraging tone for the season ahead. Lebanon, battling right to the final whistle, made it clear this was no easy early-season tuneup. The one-point margin kept the home sideline on edge until the clock hit zero. With the win, Aloha improves to 1-0 on the year. The Warriors will look to carry that late-game composure into next week as Metro League play approaches and the competition is expected to get even stiffer.
