Raiders cross country team ahead at mid-season

Nine students at Riverfield have found the passion for running and are participating in MAIS cross country.

Two varsity runners include Kyle Holcomb and Linda Carol Nielsen. There are seven J.V. girls running. They are Allie Holley, Sydney Clack, Jordan Nielsen, Zoe Cooper, Carlyle Shelton, Lyndy Sullivan and Joy Anna Prine.

The J.V. girls team has done well in three meets that were held in September, placing second at Natchez on Aug. 29, third at Benton on Sept. 15 and first place at Canton on Sept. 21.

R.A. Raiders win over Cathedral Green Wave

In another road trip game, the Riverfield Raiders put another mark in the win column this past Friday night.

The Raiders controlled the momentum and pace of the game against a tough team and came out on top 37-8.

The first quarter ended in a goose egg tie. The Raiders, however, had possession of the ball to begin the second quarter and with just six seconds gone off the clock, they scored their first touchdown of the night. It came on a four-yard run by Trent Ginn. Ginn kicked a one-point PAT and the Raiders were up 7-0.

Riverfield Raiders take win against Cougars

The Riverfield Academy Raiders were in Raymond, Miss., two Friday’s nights ago to play the Central Hinds Cougars.

The game technically speaking was their first home game of the year, but due to COVID-19 restrictions it had to be played out on the visitors field.

The location of the contest didn’t seem to matter too much to the Raiders, though, as they hit the field and began to dominate the game early on. By half time, the Raiders had a commanding lead of 26-0.
