Irving College boys held to single-digit point total
|
The Bulldogs used their tough pressure defense to keep Irving College in check throughout their game, and kept them off the scoreboard for the entire first quarter and much of the second half on the way to a lopsided 49-6 victory.
Pressing after each made basket for most of the first half, the Bulldogs scored several transition baskets off midcourt turnovers, and led 10-0 after a period before taking a 21-4 lead into halftime.
The Tigers came up empty in the third quarter, as Eastside padded its lead with 18 points in the period for a 39-4 edge, and Blade Weddington scored his team?s only second-half bucket late in the fourth as the Bulldogs cruised to the 43-point shellacking.
Lake Hillis led the way for Eastside with 10 points, while Logan Underhill and Jon Reed had eight each and Will Basham added seven.
Irving College?s Evan Callahan had all four of his team?s first-half points, while Weddington had their lone second-half bucket.
