Raiders played badly and scored only 48 total points, losing bY 2 I points.

58-54. The Raiders went into the finals against the Tecumsah Indians. The Raiders
played well, but ended short handed, losing by 7.

record of I 1-8. Playing E.ast Butler in the first round of sub-districts was going to be a
tough challenge; the Raiders won 71-57. The sub-district final put them up against
their rival, Waterloo. This gave the Raiders a chance to avenge an early season one
point loss. The Raiders did just that, winning the game 63-58. In the district final game.
