Varsity Basketball Rummel Basketball for '75-'76 was very exciting even though the long awaited district crown escaped the Raiders' grasp once again. The season started out well for the Raiders as they gained victories over B. T. Washington 49-39, and Bonnabel, 50-42. The next contest was against parish rival East Jefferson and it seemed evident that Coach Robarts' crew was sitting on their early Season laurels as they were embarrassed, 93-79.
