The game started off with a significant challenge for the Blazers, as they found themselves down 20-4 by the end of the first quarter. The Rayders' sharp shooters proved to be a formidable force, making it difficult for the Blazers to keep up.

As the second quarter came to a close, the Blazers had managed to put up 14 points, but the Rayders extended their lead to 32 points. The halftime score stood at 32-14 in favor of Charlevoix.

The second half saw the Blazers fighting hard to close the gap, but the Rayders' consistent shooting and strong defense kept them ahead. Despite the Blazers' best efforts, the final score was 59-39 in favor of the Rayders.

Leading Scorers:  Zachary Porters - 13pts, Jackson Shetler 9pts, Brendan Piechocki 8pts.

While the outcome was not what the Blazers had hoped for, the team showed resilience and determination throughout the game. They will look to bounce back and get back on the winning side of basketball as they hit the road this Friday to take on the Grayling Vikings.

The Blazers are eager to end the week on a high note and will be working hard in practice to prepare for their upcoming match.
