ECMS Boys Basketball 1/19/15-1/23/15

After dropping to 1-3 following a tough loss to a talented Valley team on Tuesday afternoon, the young eagles were in need of a big win in front of a big crowd headed into Thursday’s showdown with the HCA Defenders. Led by the 8th grade common core of Jared Post (26 points), Connor McDonough (17 points), and Henry Poliandro (5 massive 4th quarter points), the young Eagles held off a late surge and secured a 52-42 win in front of a sell-out (or at least swagged-out) crowd. Now at 2-3, the young Eagles are looking to claw their way to .500 and beyond in the most pivotal week of the season which contains four winnable games and holds the proverbial momentum key to the remainder of the season.
