The Raiders did not make the fans wait long, jumping out to 10-5 lead within the first 3 minutes of the game. When the tenth point was made the fans went bonkers. It was so loud the gym roof was about to blow off.
The momentum helped guide the Raiders to a 31-11 lead after the first period. The Raiders Offense was on target all night connecting on 50% (30 for 60) of their field goals, including ten three-pointers. The Raiders defense was all over the place forcing the Bulldogs into 19 turnovers that led to 29 points for Cardinal Ritter.

Sophomore Nate Soltis sparked the Raiders
offense scoring 17 of his game high 22 points in the first period. Senior Anthony Dumes finished with 11, going 3-5 from three point range to join Soltis in double figures. Other key contributors were juniors Miles Tracy (9 points, 6 rebounds, 4 steals), and Shelby Turner (8 points, 5 rebounds, 2 blocks), and Sophomore Joey Gruber (7 points, 3 rebounds).


The basketball team would like to thank the parents, student section, band, and cheerleaders for creating such an amazing atmosphere! Anyone who had the distinct
honor of being in the gym Friday night were rewarded by seeing what it is to truly be a Cardinal Ritter Raider!!!
