Raiders Face Tough Competition in Regional Tournament

Monday, March 04 2013

It was a busy weekend of basketball in Unalaska, with three teams competing in the Southwest 2A regional tournament.

The Raiders duked it out against Dillingham and Bristol Bay in front of packed crowds for a chance to go to the state championships.

On Thursday, the boys team lost to the Dillingham Wolverines, 52-41, while the Lady Raiders led during their entire game against the Bristol Bay Angels, winning 41-32.

But on Friday, the Dillingham Wolverines bested the Lady Raiders 52-26, and on Saturday, in a rematch against Bristol Bay, the Lady Raiders lost by a narrow margin -- 37-28.

The boys had an extremely narrow loss to Bristol Bay on Saturday, with a final score of 59-54.

The losses mean neither of the Raiders teams will be continuing on to the state championships. Both teams placed third overall in the region, with Togiak in fourth.
