In the boys’ game, the Raiders led 18 to 9 at the half and stretched the lead into double digits in the 3rd quarter.  Harris battled back in the 4th quarter to cut the gap to 1 points, but the Raiders hit the free throws down the stretch to capture the win.  Jacob Holder led the Raiders in scoring with 15 points, including 8 in the final frame.  Hayden Garr added 14 points while Cooper Reed finished with 5.  Holder and Garr were named the Crazy Daisies co-players of the game.

The Raiders and Lady Raiders will travel to Woodbury on Monday night for a battle with Cannon County.  The girls’ game will tip off at 6 PM.
