“Thriller in the House of Payne”

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The <strong>Cibola Raiders</strong> made the trek from Yuma to take on the <strong>Chandler Wolves</strong> in an overtime thriller! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Cibola started the game off hot with senior wing [player_tooltip player_id='205661' first='Sierra' last='Bomhower'] getting into the paint for easy buckets giving Cibola an early lead. Chandler's grit and determination, led by sophomore [player_tooltip player_id='598325' first='Karis' last='Hurd'], chipped away at the Cibola lead until they went ahead in the final frame and seemed to have control, but missed free throws by both teams and a few missed opportunities around the paint saw the game go to OT on an ally-oop tip in by Cibola senior guard, [player_tooltip player_id='205674' first='Isabela' last='Molina'].</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Big rebounds and free throws by freshmen point guard [player_tooltip player_id='754856' first='Jayla' last='Freeman'] helped the Wolves pull away for good, winning 48-43. Cibola plays Fairfax next at home and Chandler plays at Perry, both games being played on December 5th.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["205661"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Sierra is a dynamic wing that can create her own shot using her length and athleticism.
