Both teams were patient on offense as they methodically looked for the best way to break the other team›s defense and score. Foul trouble haunted the Lady Dawgs early as they put the Raiders on the line several times. Luckily, the Lady Raiders were a little off on the free throws for the night. At the end of the first half, the Dawgs were trailing by a score of 19-12.
