Through the first two games of the 2014 Causey Orthodontics Raider Classic, North Forsyth girls basketball coach Eric Herrick hadn’t learned anything new about his team. “Absolutely nothing,” he said, for he already knew the Lady Raiders could score, and in particular, shoot, and nothing about North’s wins against Roswell and Creekview changed that diagnosis. But he and the Lady Raiders learned plenty in the fourth quarter of a 56-53 victory over Sequoyah on Friday that earned North its second straight Raider Classic championship and extended its home winning streak to 26 games.
