Boys Int 2 Basketball Wins Over Punahou

I don't know what the final score was.
The last time I looked it was 44-32 in the Raiders' favor with about two minutes left with 'Iolani cruising. So I'm guessing it was at least a twelve point margin.
Usually Intermediate 2 teams struggle to win games and a better than .500 season is really a great accomplishment. But this team is really good. They've only lost one game (by two points to St. Louis).
In this game, played at the newly refurbished Punahou gym, the Raiders held the lead from the second quarter on. Most of the time the lead was about ten or more points. I do remember the Buffanblu closing to four at one point, but the Raiders made a run to put that challenge to rest.
About five minutes after the game ended the power went out. Total blackout with screams and everything. Little did we know that this blackout would be a prolonged affair.
