Raider Nation

No, definitely not the Oakland Raiders. I’m talking about the Lomega Raiders. A group that returned all five starters from last year’s championship squad and was able to repeat.

Sure it sounds great to have all five starters back. But I must say that is a ton of pressure to have on you all season. Of course, everyone is giving you their best shot. But the super five did it.

By the way, if you haven’t checked out John Rohde’s piece about one special Lomega girl, do yourself a favor and check it out. All you need to know about Lomega’s class and character can be summed up in that piece.

B Girls Notebook

Memorable weekend: While Saturday’s final did not go the way Sentinel’s Tamara Brown wanted it to go, she still made history.

Brown scored 77 points during the three games, tying her for the 10th most points scored by a girl in a single tournament in 5-on-5 play.

“Wow, I had no idea about anything like that,” Brown said. “I’m really happy to have had this moment. This weekend is what you dream about when playing. I got to experience that.”
