JOHNSTOWN – The Lady Raiders proved to be just too strong for Schenectady CCC's Lady Royals on Wednesday evening. The FM Five led by 10 at the half and won the game 89-63.

The visitors stayed with the Raiders in the early going, and the Royals led 21-15 at the midpoint of the first half. Then Stephanie Rice stole the ball and drove for two. Torri Richard stole the ball and fed Rice for two more. Silvia Vasquez Rivera sank a three from the center of the arc, and FM led 22-21 with 8:24 on the clock.

 

 

The Lady Raiders never trailed from that point on. They owned a 39-29 lead at the break.

The second half was all Lady Raiders as the home team put 50 second-stanza points through the hoop. 

Rice and Evanda Redwood led the Lady Raiders with 20 points apiece. Rice also pulled down 11 rebounds.  Radasha Pope netted 10 points and led the team in assists, with seven. 

All 11 Lady Raiders saw action, and nine of them scored. 

FM's record is now 14-5 (8-2 in conference play). SCCC is 2-13 (2-8). 

The win was FM's fifth in a row. Their next game will be at SUNY Delhi on Saturday. FM is in third place in the Mountain Valley Conference, with an 8-2 conference mark. Delhi is right behind in fourth place, with a 5-4 record in conference play.
