Having captured a first in the recent Jingle Bell championship, the weary Morrison Eagles flew into Charlie Dalton Gym ready for another battle on the hardwood.The Eagles fell in the finals of Thursday night’s Masonic Lodge tournament to Avery Trace, 47-25. Morrison claimed the silver medal and had two all-tournament players, Rylan Holder and Kason Holder.During basketball instruction, a coach might show his players a regulation hoop can allow two basketballs to travel through simultaneously. The Eagles had trouble getting one ball to fall as they gave a gritty, determined effort, but could not overcome a poor shooting performance.The two all-tournament players for Morrison usually score in abundance, but at the half Thursday the score was 30-10.
