Boys win at regionals, head to state

The Raider team demolished their opponent at the regional round of the state 2B basketball tournament to qualify for the next round at the Spokane Veterans Memorial Arena Wednesday.

The ninth-seeded Lake Roosevelt team beat the number-16 River View team by 38 points, 80-42, on Feb. 26.

The win sends the Raiders to the next round, tonight, March 2, at 9 p.m. at the arena when they will play number-eight seed Coupeville in a fight to keep their season alive. 

If they win, they will play Liberty High School from Spangle the next day, March 3, also at 9 p.m. at the Spokane Arena on the east court.

If they beat the Spangle team, they'd play in game 20 for a chance to play in either the game for third place March 4, or in the championship March 5.
