It’s Friday! And that means it’s time for another installment of everyone’s favorite segment Raider Friday Trivia! Today’s question is… since 2008 how many combined times have Raider teams played at TD Garden? Answer in tonight’s Raider Recap!

Two contests took place on this hump day despite the left over snow on the ground as girls tennis opened it’s season at Newton North while boys volleyball looked to make it 2 for 2 to start the year. Would both be successful and get the w’s, let’s find out!
