Girls begin league playoffs after closing season with wins

The Lady Raiders began the North Central Washington district tournament with a win last night and will play the next round on Friday. 

During the regular season, the Lady Raiders defeated Okanogan on the road on Feb. 1 48-43, then prevailed over the Lady Bears in Brewster 62-50 on Feb. 4.

The next day in Coulee Dam, LR hosted Manson in the final game of the regular season, with LR winning 79-24.

Lake Roosevelt led 23-2 at the end of the first quarter, 41-12 at the end of the second, scored 27 points in the third to lead 68-19 at the start of the fourth, and scored 11 more to finish the game with the 79-24 final.

LR's ladies hosted Bridgeport in the first round of the district playoffs last night, winning 94-35.

On Friday, Feb. 11, they are scheduled to host the winner of the Manson/Tonasket game that also took place last night. Both of those teams are seeded lower than LR, with Manson seeded sixth and Tonasket third.

If LR wins that game, the next round of the league playoffs isn't until Feb. 18 with the opponent and location to be decided by other games.
