The Game: The Jim Jaggers Region tipped off with this match, and half of the first round is already in the books.

Ridgeway won on sheer buzzer volume. Both teams were 25 percent efficient on bonus opportunities, but the Roadrunners did it on 4 of 16 answering, while the Wolverines were but 1 of 4. Ridgeway captain Zach was active, getting 3 correct in the first round, 6 correct in the second, and 2 more in the Lightning Round. He and Derek provided a one-two punch that proved too formidable for Overton to keep up with.
