4/15
Game 1: Iowa Central- 11 Central- 1
The Raiders struggled to contain a high-powered Triton offense, falling 11-1 in a six-inning contest.

Callen Heule was tagged with the loss, pitching a little over three innings and surrendering six earned runs before the bullpen took over.
Game 2: Iowa Central- 12 Central- 4
Despite a multi-home run effort from the opposition, Danica Taylor kept the Raiders competitive by launching a three-run home run and driving in nearly all of the team's runs in a 12-4 loss. Kami Kaskie also contributed an RBI double to the offensive effort. Starting pitcher Logan Rainforth suffered the loss after a difficult opening frame that saw the Tritons jump out to an early lead.
4/19
Game 1: Northeast Iowa- 9 Central- 1
Central CC dropped the opening game of the home series 9-1 as the offense was held to just four hits. Bella Larsen provided the bright spot for the Raiders, recording an RBI single to bring home the team's only run of the game. Callen Heule went the distance in a seven-inning complete game effort, but was charged with the loss after the NICC capitalized on 12 hits.
Game 2: Northeast Iowa- 3 Central- 2
The Raiders fought to the final out in a narrow 3-2 defeat, highlighted by a strong three-hit performance from Jordyn Trotta. Taylor and Rainforth each tallied an RBI to keep the game within reach until the seventh inning.
