McCreary is playing much better after being very battle-tested. With that, I've got the Raiders.

 

McCreary Central 77-68

I'll take the Raiders on the neutral floor 67-60.

I'll take the Raiders 65-60.

Who would have thunk it? :thumb::lol:

It's just hard for me to pick a team whose largest win streak of the season is three games and plays so inconsistent.

They've won two straight over some decent teams and four of five, so it's time for a slip up and with their next game being a post-season game, thus why I'm picking them to lose.

If they beat Southwestern, they'll win the region.

Raiders by 10

Dagwood Shootz and his merry band of Warriors 58-56.

Raiders by 6 in a close won. The tougher schedule this year will help the raiders in this tough game. Good luck to both teams.
