Mt. Ayr 68, Lenox 47
The Mount Ayr Raiders hosted the Lenox Tigers last Tuesday.
The Raiders came out on top and shrugged off the third quarter slump they find themselves in to hold the lead and sweep the Tigers this season and improve to 12-1.
The Raiders were led by Jaixen Frost with 29 points, while Tyler Martin scored the second most with 12 and Braydon Pierson scored 11.
The Raiders went into halftime, leading 32-20 and in the third, outscored the Tigers 20-14 before putting the game away with 16 more points in the fourth.
Pierson led the team in rebounds with eight, while Riley Stark led the team in assists with six. He also added two steals to his stat line.
Frost led the team in steals with five, one of which led to a first half dunk that got the crowd on their feet and set the tone for the contest.
The Raiders improved to 12-1 on the season with their 12th straight win.
“We talked at half that we have to find a way in this third quarter,” said coach Bret Ruggles. “I thought our passing was outstanding. Teams are going to have to go man-to-man on us and if we can punish them that way we’ll be good.”
