...came out firing, so it was good to get that eight-point lead going into halftime.” With the team up 35-27 at the break, the Crimson got a lucky bounce early on in the second half to start its run. Freshman guard T.J. Carey drove for a lay-up attempt that was emphatically swatted away by Raider center Alex Woodhouse. Fortunately for the home team, he swatted it right to Pusar at the three-point line, who nailed the open shot. The visitors wouldn’t go away and cut the lead down...
