Crane lifts R.A. Long over Woodland

The Lumberjacks were like an old pickup idling in the driveway on Friday when they required some extra time to get warmup before rolling to a 71-40 win at Woodland in 2A Greater St. Helens League boys basketball action.

R.A. Long found itself tied with the Beavers at 11-11 after one quarter, but found a new level of RPMs to operate at shortly thereafter.

“(We got) off to a little bit of a slow start. Got good looks, just wasn’t making them,” R.A. Long coach Jeray Key said.
