You can say a lot of things about yesterday's (September 1) game between the Airdrie Raiders and the Cochrane Lions in the Calgary Bantam Football Association.   Exciting, highly entertaining.  What you can't call it is low scoring, or a defensive battle.  

The Raiders and Lions squared off in the second game of the season for both clubs and in the end, the Lions proved to have a little more firepower and blazed their way to a 66 - 48 victory over the Raiders. 

The loss drops Airdrie's record early in the season to 0 and 2 while the Lions are still perfect at 2 and 0.

Next Saturday, September 8th, both teams will be back in action.  The Raiders will face the powerhouse Calgary Cowboys at 3:00 pm at Hellard Field.

The Lions will kick off at 1:00 on Encana Field taking on the Rebels.
