Raiders win three, topping state 2B list

The Raider boys remained undefeated and at the top of the state 2B list Tuesday after winning three games this week, including on Saturday against Idaho's 2023 state champs.

Lake Roosevelt (16-0 overall) defeated Plummer, Idaho's Lakeside Knights (8-2) by 77-70 after gaining 13 points in the second quarter in Coulee Dam for a 39-29 halftime lead.

Raider fans were first treated to the team's 60-52 takedown of Manson (10-6) Friday night in Coulee Dam, a tough game played without Chase Marchand, who sat on the bench not in uniform.

That's happened before, when Coach Ed Wolfe let Marchand and Brandon Pino both rest up before a tough game the following night against Spangle, which they won by 18 points.

Last night, Raider fans soaked in another win at home as LR beat Okanogan 65-46.

Lake Roosevelt is scheduled to play Liberty Bell (12-3) in a league game Friday at 7:30 in the Raiders' last home game of the regular season.

They take on the Tigers (10-8) next Tuesday in Tonasket, then will play a non-league game against Columbia (Burbank) on Friday, Feb. 2.
