Going up against Little River-Academy, a team that entered Friday night’s matchup at the RHS Gymnasium with a District 19-3A record of 6-1 and were once stateranked during pre-district play, the Tigers held their own as scoring from freshman De’Andre Stephens put Rockdale in a position to get their first district win. However, the Bumblebees began to swarm the basket with an 8-2 run to open the third. As the Tigers struggled with shooting until midway through the fourth, they couldn’t erase the deficit and fell, 58-43.

CAMERON—Four Rockdale High School powerlifters left Saturday’s Yoe Invitational with medals while another five student athletes placed among the top five in their respective weight classes.

This Saturday afternoon, RHS softball will open up their season for their Blueand- Gold game, an intersquad scrimmage with a mix of both varsity and junior varsity players on each team.
