The Coffee County Central High School boys basketball team got their summer scrimmage season underway on Friday with a triple-header at the Van Buren County Playday. New head coach Micah Williams started his tenure a bit shorthanded due to vacations and other conflicts. Several players had good performances, but the Raiders dropped all games as Coffee County was missing at least 3 crucial players.
