The Cowboys of Southwest played hosts to the Tigers of Ragsdale in a Piedmont Triad
4A Conference battle. This was the first time around for these rivals in the
2011-2012 campaign, and unfortunately only one team showed up. The Tigers came out
and out hustled and commanded this game from the tip. After the first quarter the
visitors held a 16-10 lead. The lead slowly stretched out to as many as 13, but the
Cowboys showed a twinkle of heart and cut it down to an 8 point deficit, but
Ragsdale quickly responded before the halftime break at 38-28. The Cowboys had a
quick response with their own 4-0 run to make it 38-32. From there the Tigers
hustled it back out to a 58-39 lead. Southwest closed the third frame with another
quick 5-0 spurt for a 58-44 tally. The fourth continued with the Cowboys with 4 more
straight points to make it 58-48. Southwest only managed to trade baskets and never
got a grip on the game and couldn’t make up the ground, and fell to a 84-71 defeat.
The Cowboys were lead by Saxton Cotton and KJ Langley’s 10 points apiece. Ragsdale
was lead by Bryan Rouse’s 37 points. The Cowboys are hoping to find a heart surgeon
because they turn right back around and play tomorrow night at Western Guilford.
