LUBBOCK, Texas — A few unfortunate bounces and missed shots can end a great run. It doesn’t matter if that run spans a particular game or an entire season. Monday, they ended both for No. 24 Three Rivers. The Lady Raiders' late run fell just short against No. 9 Jones County, losing 88-84 in the first round of the NJCAA Tournament.
