Grider sparks Cajuns victory

LAFAYETTE -- Australia's Melbourne Giants probably thought Sydney was a neighboring city from down under. On Thursday night, the Giants -- along with 2,100 Ragin' Cajun fans -- found out that Sydney is also Southwestern Louisiana's new offensive threat. Sydney Grider, the leading 3-point marksman in college basketball last season, made his debut along with the rest of this year's Ragin' Cajun team as USL downed Melbourne 88-83 in an eshibition game.
