The CAM Cougars girls basketball team is set to square up against the Riverside Bulldogs Friday night in Oakland in the Class 1A-District 1 Semifinal. Earlier in the season, the Bulldogs went to CAM last month and won 56-48 behind nine Sophia Taylor points. That matchup was just the third meeting since 2020.

CAM went on the road and beat Woodbine 68-57 in the regional quarterfinal on Tuesday. The Cougars were led by Senior Maddie Richter, who put up an astonishing 37 points that included six three-pointers. Head Coach Joe Wollum was thrilled with the team’s performance earlier this week.

Senior Guard Maddie Richter is described as a team player and a very selfless person on and off the court by her team and Coach Wollum points that out.

The Cougars understand what has to improve to avenge the earlier loss to the 19-win Bulldogs and are looking for their third win of the postseason.

The Cougars and Bulldogs tip-off at 7 P.M. Friday at Riverside. KJAN will have coverage beginning at 7 pm.
