The Morrison Eagles took off to a 12-5 first-quarter lead Thursday afternoon as they played host to Centertown’s Warriors in 7-8 grade season action.You can’t count the Warriors out however after a second-quarter rally made it a one-bucket game at the break, 21-19. But the Eagles hung on for a close 46-40 victory.After the strong start, the Eagles began to have trouble in the paint missing the inside shot, then the second off the rebound as they held the height advantage over Centertown. The Warriors took advantage of the inside difficulties by hustling down court when they recovered the rock for quick layups by Wyatt Wilson and Weston Wilson, which they did several times.
