  • Raiders split with Dyersburg...

    Fishermen often spin tales about "the one that got away.”

    Dyersburg State used runs of 11-6 and 13-6 to get out to a 36-23 lead at one point in the first half before the Raiderettes scored the last four points of the first half to make the score 36-27.
    Ashley Cox (6 points) led the Raiderettes at the half.
