The Ringgold Rams had hit the skids.

What they really needed was to win a tough, hard-fought game to overcome adversity.

Ringgold fell behind early and trailed 31-26 at the half but turned it on in the second half and put visiting South Park away at the free throw line to come away with a 60-49 win.
