In the opening round of the East Husker Conference tournament Friday night, the LVSS Girls fell to Pender by a final of 57-33.
Kaylee Boyle led the way with 14 points, 6 rebounds, 4 steals. Other scorers were Ashley Peters-9, Morgan Morgan-6, Breanna Smith-2, Sierra Beacom-2 points 4 steals.
LV/SS got off to a slow start, and that ultimately prevented them from making it a game of things, in my opinion.
The Raiders (4-13) take on Madison (2-16) in a consolation game of the East Husker Conference Tournament Thursday evening in Genoa.
The Dragons lost 59-16 to Humphrey/Lindsay Holy Family at Humphrey/Lindsay Holy Family in the first round Friday night.
LV/SS beat Madison 43-29 in Madison on January 10th.
I think the Raiders have a good chance to knock off the Dragons again.
LV/SS has done some nice things this year, in my opinion, and I feel that win number 5 is coming.
It's never easy to beat a team twice in a season, but I think the Raiders can get the job done Thursday night.
I think LV/SS will be motivated and fired up to play in this game.
I'm sure the Raiders are just glad to be playing another game in this conference tournament.
This game may not seem like a big deal to most, but it is a big deal for the players and coaches participating in the game I'm sure.
Winning these types of games can help you build your program and get things headed in the right direction.
I look for Thursday night's game to be closer than the first meeting between the two teams was, but I still look for LV/SS to find a way to win.
The Raiders have Clarkson/Leigh, Boys Town, and BRLD, all on the road, to end the regular season.
I think LV/SS can at least split their last four games of the regular season.
A 6-15 record wouldn't be all that bad for the Raiders considering how they've done in recent years.
A win over Madison Thursday night would be very positive and encouraging for these girls, in my opinion.
