The Riverfield Raiders traveled to Minden this past Friday night where they soundly defeated the Glenbrook Apaches by a score of 42-13. The win put the Raiders at 3-2 overall at a midway point in the season.

It was a late night for both teams due to weather conditions. An electrical storm delayed the start of the game until well after 8:30 p.m. and even after the game got under way another 30 minute lightning delay came about midway through the first quarter.

The Riverfield Lady Raiders softball team added two District 3 AAA wins last week.

The Lady Raiders hosted Porters Chapel Academy from Vicksburg last Tuesday and took a 2-1 extra inning win.

Senior left fielder T. Hixon got the walk-off single for the Lady Raiders and also led the offensive attack with three his on the day. 

E.J. Barker also had multiple hits. M. Bennett pitched for the Lady Raiders and responded with a three-hit, 6-K complete game win.

The Delhi Bears blanked the Madison Jaguars 40-0 last Friday night.

The win leaves Delhi undefeated at 3-0 for the season while Madison falls to 0-3.

Jimmy Thomas caught three passes for 35 yards and one touchdown while Maquil Hicks caught two for 17 yards and a touchdown. Cameron McDowell had two catches for 42 yards and Tyrone Smith caught four passes for 13 yards.
