Second straight very solid performance by Ryle. Nate is down to an 8-man rotation and they are playing very well. Boone has certainly improved down the stretch and it is hard to beat a team three times in one season. Congrats to the Raiders. Ryle scored the first 9 points but Boone clawed back to take their only lead of the night very briefly in the third quarter.

it is hard to beat a team three times in one season.

 

Especially when that team took out the top 2 teams in the region in a 10 day span. Great win for Ryle.

Congrats to Ryle! Didn't come close to callin this one. Thought BC was coming together. Predicted Boone to win the district and make some noise in region....Anyone see it?

Ryle went to an 8-man rotation just the last two games and they are really playing well together and every kid really gets after it on defense. Scott Gray was definitely the unsung hero tonight. He is just starting to get his basketball legs after sitting out 3 months from early November through January. He hit two key threes and a pair or throws and hustled his rear off guarding Bray. Scott probably had 12 points and was fab on D. The Raiders had a nice win vs. NewCath to end the regular season so I hope we can take a little mo into the regional tourney at our place.

I'm truly happy for the Raiders....only saw them play at US Bank game vs CCH...looked discouraged from the first tip...Cov played real well, but Ryle seemed to have much more talent than they showed. Good luck !

Thanks for your kind words. I thought we only played well one quarter vs. CovCath with a fine second quarter to close to within 8 at the half. The third quarter was a nightmare and I give credit to CovCath. They were brilliant that night in quarters one and three.

I am a little shocked with Ryle beating Boone Co., but congrats to the Raiders.

I'd say it is about matchups. We beat Boone in the early season 55-44 at Boone, mid to late season 70-48 at Ryle and 53-48 at St. Hank. Ryle matches up very well with Boone.

Why did Gray sit out for 3 months?

Minor surgery and rehab after football. Initially, I do not think he planned to play hoops at all this winter. He sure made a difference last night and played his best game of the season by far.

Congrats Raiders on a big win!
