Staff report

LEXINGTON — South Rowan’s girls basketball team continues to have a bumpy ride through the Central Carolina Conference.

The Raiders lost 69-33 at Central Davidson on Tuesday.

South’s defense usually has been stronger than its offense, but stops were hard to come by against the Spartans (5-4, 3-4).

South (1-10, 1-7) lost its seventh in a row since beating East Davidson.

Mackenzie Chabala scored nine for the Raiders, while Carlie Moore and Madilyn Cherry had seven apiece.
