On Saturday evening, the Coffee County Red Raiders travel to Cleveland to take on the Blue Raiders in the quarterfinal round of the Region 3 Class 4-A tournament.

Cleveland jumped out to the early lead, and Coffee County had difficulties with turnovers as the Blue Raiders to a big lead of 37-18 at halftime.

A very talented Cleveland squad continued to extend their advantage in the second half to win 79-44 and end the season for the Red Raiders.

Coffee County finished the season at 16-11.
