The Eagleville Eagles came into Bell Buckle on Tuesday night and handily completed the season sweep of a struggling Cascade Champions squad, 67-44.

            Eagleville’s sophomore star Camden Cole led the way with 29 points as Cascade had no answer for him on the defensive end.

            Cascade actually started the game pretty well, trading baskets with the Eagles, and specifically Cole. He would end the first quarter with 13 of Eagleville’s points as they led 19-15 going into the second frame.

            Cascade’s offense would falter under the visitor’s pressure defense as the second quarter began, scoring only eight points in the period as they went into the halftime locker room down 40-23.

            It was more of the same in the second half despite Cascade coming out of the break with a quick five points. After an immediate timeout by Eagleville’s head coach Davy McClaren, the Eagles would outscore the Champions 11-7 in the remainder of the third quarter, going into the final frame with a healthy 51-35 lead.

            The visitors won every quarter in Tuesday's 67-44 win over Cascade, outscoring the Champions 16-9 in the fourth as Cascade simply could not find any rhythm offensively for 32 minutes.

            Eagleville was led by Cole’s 29 points, but they also got 15 points from senior C.J. Goers.

            Cascade was led by Isaac McElroy’s 12 points, Henry Stone’s 10 points, and Saebyn Burris’ nine points.

            This result doesn’t bode well for Cascade moving forward as they travel to Grundy County on Friday, resuming district play live on The Zinger 100.9 and AM 1400.

            Eagleville will host Huntland on Friday night as they also resume district play.
