Hayden Knudsen would finish with 5 points, 6 boards, and 3 assists. Ravym Medricky would finish with 1 point and 4 boards. Mateya Bruguier would also add a point for the Red Raiders. N“This was a tale of two halves for us. We got stops and transition and we only gave up 5 offensive boards the first half. Defensively we really did a great job on them. The other 12 offensive boards all came in the 3rd quarter where they just bullied us and we couldn’t get a box out. In the 4th we tried to bring some pressure and they didn’t miss a shot where we couldn’t buy a bucket. We didn’t get any transition looks in the second half from a miss on their end. We have to be read to play at all times and can’t be satisfied until games are over.”

The organization which is now a part of the Lake Andes Food and Wellness Council, has recently sent out registration forms as well as an online link to sign up to receive a monthly weekend food bag. Online registration has since closed and the team is working on getting the number of families that are in need compiled in order to be able to put a budget together to give them a picture of the logistics of getting students the food bags starting in February. The program will serve the students the rest of this semester with a re-evaluation to follow this summer to make any necessary program adjustments.
