Basketball Game Preview: Caruthers Blue Raiders vs. Kennedy Thunderbirds

The Caruthers Blue Raiders will face off against the Kennedy Thunderbirds on Wednesday. Given that the two teams suffered a loss in their last games, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this matchup.

Meanwhile, Kennedy suffered their biggest defeat since December 26, 2024 on Tuesday. They were outmatched by Exeter and fell 72-26. The Thunderbirds were in a tough position after the first half, with the score already sitting at 43-11.

Caruthers suffered a grim 54-31 defeat to Kennedy in their previous meeting back in December of 2015. Can the Blue Raiders avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
