Basketball Game Preview: Richland Rams vs. Bellefonte Raiders + How To Watch

For the first time this season, Richland will have a chance to prove themselves in a conference matchup. They will be defending their home court for the first time this season when they go up against the Bellefonte Raiders at 7:15 p.m. on Friday. Given that the two teams suffered a loss in their last games, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this matchup.

Richland's tournament run continued when they took on Quaker Valley on Saturday. The Rams took a blow against the Quakers, falling 82-49.

Richland's loss came about despite a quality game from Glaiden Hale, who dropped a double-double with 17 points and ten boards. The team also got some help courtesy of Noah Lushko, who went 6-for-10 en route to 13 points.

Meanwhile, Bellefonte unfortunately couldn't capitalize on their home-court advantage in their season opener. They took a 66-58 hit to the loss column at the hands of Huntingdon on Thursday. Sadly, the defeat continues a streak the team started last season, making it five in a row.
