    Trimble County absolutely tormented Kentucky Country Day when the Raiders played host to the Bearcats Dec. 11. The Raiders came in to the game with focus and ultimately pulled off a big win, 83-59.

    Last winter, Trimble County met KCD on the court but left empty-handed with an overtime loss that may have been won with better concentration at the free throw line. This time around, the team was determined not to make the same mistakes.
