OUTLOOK
The Raiders bring back a strong group after a 14-16 season in 2014. Coach Lowrey believes with McConnell, Bridge, and Baxter (St. Joseph's commit) coming back with experience they can improve this spring. With 8 starters coming back, this should be true. The Raiders move to the NCC after leaving the HCC in 2014 (7-11) where the 2014 state champion Millers came out of. The Raiders could have a very successful season with the group they return and will look to continue to build the program with a strong freshman group coming up.
