Valley Vikings advance to 2A SRC Championship game against Oakley; Thursday Idaho prep scores
HAZELTON, Idaho (KMVT/KSVT) — It may have only been the semi-finals, but it was a championship atmosphere Thursday night at Valley High School.

Raft River came alive, however, in the second quarter, outscoring Valley 18-9 in the second quarter to give the Trojans a three-point lead into the break.
The momentum wouldn’t last as the Viking came into the third quarter with aggression and would build up an 11-point lead.
Raft River battled back, but it was too little, too late, as the Vikings would win 59-52.
The Vikings had four scorers in double digits as senior Lexi Huettig led the way with 14. Sophomore Hailey Malone scored 13 and had a great game off the bench for the Vikings.
Senior Joanie Lewis scored 12, and sophomore Alora Godfrey had 10.
