Yesterday, on Jan. 21, the Raiders played a neck-and-neck game against the Okanogan Bulldogs.

The game was tied 26-26 at the half.

With the lead going back and forth, the Raiders led 52-51 and took possession with 20 seconds left on the clock.

The Raiders called timeout, and the Bulldogs stole the ball back after the Raider inbound. The Bulldogs took the lead, and the Raiders were unable to answer in the final, tense seconds of the game for a final score of 53-52 Okanogan.
