Girls season opener vs. Oxbow

The Girls basketball team opened their season at Oxbow on Friday night and played reasonably well in a 33-25 loss. Deva Steketee paced the way with 9 points and 12 rebounds. Kathleen McCarty finished with 8 points and 4 assists. Oxbow jumped out to an 11-2 lead after one quarter and lead 18-8 at the half. The second half was fairly even with both teams trading hard fought baskets. RA did not succomb to Oxbow's intense full court pressure, but will need to find easier ways in the future to score against aggressive 1/2 court pressure. The Raptors have a week to work it out before travelling to Stowe for a Boys and Girls double header on Saturday the 13th.
