The Raiders had a busy week of competition, starting with the Miller Tournament, Saturday January 9th followed by the Bon Homme/ Scotland/Avon dual on Tuesday January 12th followed by the Philip dual tournament Friday January 15th. We had a strong showing throughout these three competitions. The Raiders finished with four placers at the Miller tournament. Karstyn Lhotak bringing home third place, Jhett Breen with 3rd, Bradyn Lhotak 3rd, and Nolan Dvorak 4th. The Raiders then traveled to Scotland on Tuesday for a dual against BHSA.
