BROOKINGS — The Raiders bounced back and are bound for the consolation ‘ship.

No. 1 Lyman pulled away from Colman-Egan, 53-48, advancing to Saturday’s consolation championship at the Class B state girls basketball tournament inside First Bank & Trust Arena.

The Raiders, after taking a heartbreaking loss to No. 8 Corsica-Stickney (65-56) on Thursday, responded to the upset with a win in the consolation semifinals.

“We just came in more hyped and we got after everything we did,” said senior forward Mak Scott. “We didn’t do well defensively last night and transition into offense and wait for our moment to shoot the ball so I think we did everything, overall, better.”

Scott also had a bounceback game of her own in Friday’s victory with a dominant 21 points, 15 rebounds, three blocks and a steal. The Raiders’ second-leading scorer at over 15 points per game, was held to just six in the loss to the Jags on Thursday.

“They ran a box and one on her so it limited her touches and that’s probably more my fault than it is Mak’s,” said Lyman head coach Cody Volmer. “I should’ve put us in something that could’ve gotten her the ball on the wing. It isn’t necessarily her best place to be at, but when the ball is in her hands, it’s a good place for the ball to be. I’m just really excited for how she came out today and didn’t let yesterday affect what she was.”

At the end of a seesaw first quarter, Colman-Egan’s Brynlee Landis hit back-to-back buckets to close out a 5-0 run and a 19-13 advantage for CE.

The Hawks had controlled most of the first half, but two straight steals by junior Brooke Montgomery closed the Hawks lead entirely at halftime.

Volmer says the biggest factor on the defensive side was switching to a 2-3 zone despite being a primarily man-to-man team.

“They had us if we would’ve stayed in man-to-man, I don’t think we could’ve come back,” Volmer said. “But we switched to that 2-3 (zone) and it rattled them a little bit. They couldn’t quite get downhill and get the shots they were normally looking for. I’m proud of my girls because we don’t run a 2-3, we don’t play a 2-3 zone.”

The back-and-forth brawl continued into the fourth quarter with a two-point lead for CE when the Raiders made a push. The fourth quarter was kicked off by an 8-0 Lyman run where the Raiders continued to lead until the final whistle.

“I think it was a good win, we knew they were going to be a tough team,” Scott said. “Defensively, they’re really up on you so we had to be strong with the ball but I think coming in with the first seed we knew that anything can happen especially after the first game.”

Volmer said postgame he was proud of the way the team responded following Thursday’s loss, ultimately coming back to secure a comeback win.

“What I wanted to reiterate to our girls is we lost one game and we got two more to play and we want to take a trophy home so the only way to take a trophy home is to win the next two,” Volmer said.

Jordyn Scott poured in 10 points, 12 rebounds, four assists, two steals and block for Lyman, Montgomery added 10 points, four steals, three rebounds and two blocks while Bree Smart had eight points and three assists in the win.

Landis finished with 19 points, nine rebounds, five steals and four assists for the Hawks, Jolie Flatten added 18 points and three boards while Mya Rieff netted seven points and three rebounds in the loss.

Colman-Egan will face Centerville at 11 a.m. Saturday in the seventh-place game.

And for Lyman, it’ll face a familiar face in the consolation championship. A rematch from a Feb. 17 matchup with Bennett County will take place Saturday at 12:45 p.m. The Warriors won the first meeting, 76-58, in Martin.

But for Mak Scott, the lone senior on the Raiders’ roster, she stressed how important it is to close out her high school career with a win.

“I want to finish my season ending in a win so I think it’s really important to everyone to get a win tomorrow,” Scott said.
