The 7th Grade Cardinals hosted the South Ripley Raiders on Thursday night in a spirited matchup. The Raiders jumped out to an early lead, but the Cardinals battled back to trail by just 5 points at halftime.
South Ripley’s relentless press in the second half widened the gap, and despite a determined effort, the Cardinals’ comeback fell short in a 45-34 loss.
Scoring for the Cardinals:
- Evan Jennings: 12 points
- Cam Walke: 11 points
- Brock Scheibler: 9 points
- Landon Beiser: 2 points
The Cardinals look to bounce back next Friday as they host their annual holiday tournament at home.
