Logan View/Scribner-Snyder has started to come on as of late. This is a good team that is getting better and better with each passing game.
The Raiders (3-3) battle Elmwood-Murdock (8-0) in the Logan View Holiday Tournament on Monday.
The Knights beat Falls City Sacred Heart 47-46 on the road Tuesday night.
Elmwood-Murdock is a good team, but has beaten up on weak teams and has won close games over good teams.
The bottomline is the Knights are winning, but I think Logan View/Scribner-Snyder has a chance to make things close.
This is a home Holiday Tournament for the Raiders, and this team is doing well so far this season.
Given those two things I think Logan View/Scribner-Snyder can hang with and beat Elmwood-Murdock.
This is a quality Raiders' team. All three of their losses are close.
The other side of the bracket has Fort Calhoun playing Arlington. That should be a pretty good game as both of those teams are respectable this season.
It would be a big deal for Logan View/Scribner-Snyder to get to the championship game, and win it.
It may not happen, but it's what the Raiders should definitely strive for.
I think Logan View/Scribner-Snyder could live with a 1-1 split at the very least.
Monday's game is set to start at 3:15 p.m.
The Logan View/Scribner-Snyder Girls are 1-1 in their last two games, falling 51-31 at Tekamah-Herman Friday night before defeating Douglas County West 48-26 at home Tuesday night.

The Tigers won the third quarter 10-7 to go up 34-18 at the end of three.
Tekamah-Herman outscored the Raiders 17-13 in the fourth quarter.
Logan View/Scribner-Snyder led the Falcons 11-9 at the end of one. The Raiders won the second quarter 11-5 to go up 22-14 at halftime.
Logan View/Scribner-Snyder outscored Douglas County West 13-4 in the third quarter to make it a 35-18 lead at the end of three.

Paige Heinke had a game-high 14 points while Kaylee Boyle and Sierra Beacom notched 13 and 9, respectively.
It had to be a great feeling for Logan View/Scribner-Snyder to get the monkey off their back. The first win of the season always feels good, and the Raiders finally tasted victory.
Logan View/Scribner-Snyder (1-5) takes on Elmwood-Murdock (5-4) in the Logan View Holiday Tournament on Monday.
The Knights lost 52-28 at Falls City Sacred Heart Tuesday night.
Elmwood-Murdock has beaten teams they were supposed to, but has lost to a number of good teams this season.
The Knights may be good enough to beat the Raiders, but I look for Logan View/Scribner-Snyder to put up a good fight.
Sometimes a win can kind of change the luck of fortune of a team, and I think that certainly could be the case with the Raiders.
The other side of the bracket has Fort Calhoun against Arlington.
The Pioneers should win that game, and so perhaps Logan View/Scribner-Snyder will meet Fort Calhoun in the championship game.
That would be ideal for the Raiders, although a consolation win would serve as a good momentum booster for Logan View/Scribner-Snyder as well, in my opinion.
Either way, if the Raiders can at least get a split out of this tournament, I think they would take it.
Being the host team, Logan View/Scribner-Snyder does not want to go 0-2. The Raiders want to get at least one win out of this tournament.
Monday's game is set to tip-off at 1:30 p.m.
