It was a 16-3 run by Ragsdale early in the first quarter, that got the Tigers off and running/rolling…Grimsley could get within 7 points in the fourth quarter, but free throws down the stretch sealed the win for Ragsdale…Six free throws by Fant, four free throws by Siler, and two free throws by Saigo sealed it for Ragsdale…
(Total Denial by the Ragsdale defense, early in the game/first quarter.)
Jah Saigo might have the highest running motor in the Metro…His motor gets moving, and it won’t stop…Tyler Albright, from Grimsley, would also fall into that high motor category….
