Basketball Game Preview: Sexton Big Reds vs. Portland Raiders + Official Tickets

For the first time this season, Sexton will have a chance to prove themselves in a conference matchup. They will look to take advantage of their home court for the first time this season as they take on the Portland Raiders at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, these teams will really light up the scoreboard.

On Tuesday, Sexton lost to East Lansing on the road by a 73-58 margin.

Meanwhile, Portland blew past Bath, posting a 76-11 victory. The win continues a trend for the Raiders in their matchups with the Fighting Bees: they've now won four in a row.

Sexton couldn't quite finish off Portland in their previous matchup back in February and fell 61-59. Can the Big Reds avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
