The Raiders are playing great basketball right now. Definitely the time of year to be on top of your game.
LVSS (19-2) hosts BRLD (19-2) Friday night.
The Wolverines won 64-53 at home over Wisner-Pilger Tuesday night.
Round 2 should be a great one.
It's not easy to beat a great time twice in such a short amount of time, but having BRLD at home should help.
I think the Raiders are in good shape right now as far as the wildcard point standings are concerned as they currently sit 3rd in C-1, but LVSS can't afford to drop both this one with the Wolverines, and next Friday night's game at Yutan.
I think the Raiders have to find a way to win one or both games to give themselves a good chance of making state via wildcard should they need it.
It's the time of year where champions are made and dreams are realized, and I fully expect LVSS to come out and play a great game.
Things are always tough this time of year, and these next two games are only going to help prepare the Raiders for the postseason and give them an idea of the kind of teams they're going to see in a district final and state should LVSS make it that far.
The Raiders have a very tough road to Lincoln, but they are definitely capable of making state for the first time in school history.
LVSS might be able to create some separation between themselves and the couple other teams below them in the C-1 wildcard points standings by finishing the regular season with two wins.
The Logan View/Scribner-Snyder Girls Basketball Team upset Clarkson/Leigh 45-40 at home Tuesday night before defeating Boys Town 53-15 at home Thursday night.

at halftime in favor of LVSS.
Clarkson/Leigh
outscored the Raiders 10-2 in the 3rd quarter to go up 37-30 at the end of
three.

The Cowboys won the 4th quarter 7-4.
Boyle had a game-high 23 points while Morgan Morgan totaled 8.
The Raiders are playing great basketball right now. It's like LVSS just hit a magic button.
The Raiders (7-14) host BRLD (18-4) in the regular season finale Friday night.
The Wolverines won 58-52 at home over Wisner-Pilger Tuesday night.
BRLD has won 5 straight and 9 out of their last 10.
LVSS has won 3 in a row though.
It's a matchup of two teams who are playing great basketball right now.
I fully expect the Raiders to challenge and give the Wolverines a game.
BRLD may win, but just to talk about LVSS and their potential of beating the 18-4 Wolverines is a big deal.
The Raiders are finally starting to put things together at the end of the regular season, and it has to be a promising and encouraging sign.
Hopefully the solid play carries over to Friday's game and into sub-districts next week.
LVSS is definitely on the right track, and figures to have a good chance to finish the season strong.
Anything can happen this time of year, and if I'm any team out there I don't know if I want to see the Raiders right now.
LVSS has become a scary and dangerous team. A giant killer you could say.
The Raiders pretty much knocked Clarkson/Leigh out of wildcard contention, now we'll see if they can do the same to BRLD.
