Ragland coach Andy Eden said his team played a very solid second half but the second quarter offensive collapse gave them no shot at winning the game.
“I believe we are continuing to improve,” Eden said. “If we put all of the pieces of the puzzle together, we have a chance to be a good team.”
With the loss, Ragland fell to 3-10 overall.
Lincoln 60, Ragland 23

“Lincoln’s quickness created a lot of trouble for us,” Eden said. “We could not get anything to fall for us in the first quarter, which hurt any chance we had to be competitive.”
