Cooper missed a bunch of FT's in the 2nd half. Glad to see Ryan Smith playing again. He makes a big difference in the Ryle team. Lots of hustle and physical play by both teams. Nice win vs. an improving team that is well coached. Congrats to the Raiders on bouncing back after the tough OT loss to Boone.

Do these early games count as seed games in the 33rd?

Yes. The 33rd plays a home and away with each team to make a total of 6 district seeding games.

A.J. Collins led all scorers with 21 points for Cooper. Tate Mullins had 20 for Ryle with 5 of them to start off the third quarter where Ryle took the lead and didn't give it up the rest of the way.
