The Raiders basketball teams played two very different types of games, but came away with the same result, picking up a pair of wins with the JV winning easily and the V winning on a clutch shot late against North Fulton Tuesday night!
In JV action, the Raiders put 10 players in the scoring column and jumped out to a 46-10 lead at halftime and cruised to a 64-35 victory over the Wildcats improving their record to 9-4. Ryan Terrill had 11 points in the first quarter, and Cade Brotherton had a nice game with 9 points.
The varsity game was a great one, with the Raiders surging out to a 12-2 lead before North Fulton clawed their way back into the game, with the rest of the game nip and tuck before a clutch three pointer by Brenden Carton with 2.4 seconds left put the Raiders up 50-48 for the first time since the first quarter and a Zayne Arthalony steal sealed the game!
Josh Dawe steered the ship for the Raiders with 19 points and 5 assists and Carton finished with 18 points coming on 6 made shots from deep.
The Raiders look to keep the momentum going with their homecoming game against the Farmington Farmers on Friday night!
