SENIOR NIGHT BRINGS SUCCESS FOR SOUTH RANGE

CANFIELD OH- Every year programs have to say goodbye to seniors that are about to graduate. It always makes senior nights an emotional experience. For the Raiders class of 2022, it has been a roller coaster of a high school career. From missing the district championship their freshman season, to going to back to back regional finals the last two years, to now fighting and clawing to keep the winning culture in the program. They deserved their recognition on Monday night, and the Raiders honored them with a big win against a streaking Struthers team 45-33.

The Raiders jumped out in front early and never looked back. The third quarter was the big difference, the Raiders watched their 9 point lead balloon to as much as 19. It made even the Wildcats best punch not enough to mount a comeback.

Lexi Giles led the Raiders with 17 points on her senior night. Emma Cunningham was big adding 16 points to the Raiders cause. All three seniors got into the stat sheet on the night they were honored. Giles, Hannah Heikkinen, and Mallory Vidman all showed up big in the win.

Chloe Neider led Struthers with 12 points. The Wildcats struggled from behind the arc. They went the entire game without a three.

South Range kept their spot at the top of the NE8. They’re currently tied with Poland, who they’ll meet up with Wednesday at Poland. Struthers will return to action Thursday as they travel to Girard.
