[EasternAlum]

This was a more decent game than I expected. Eastern didn't play very good defense in the first half and their rebounding was pretty bad. The game stayed fairly close through the first half until Eastern started to play a little defense and stretch the lead at half. They then game out playing much better defense and maintained a 10-15 point lead throughout. The final margin was skewed because Eastern put in its second team with 1:00 left and Breeden hit back to back 3's to cut a 13 point lead to 7.

Lyonell Gaines had 29 points and 10 rebounds...going 3/3 from 3PT
Delquan Thomas had 24 points
Kameron Woods had his best game finishing with 5 blocks. He will be an asset if he can repeat his performance and continue to improve.

Eastern is progressing nicely. The offense is getting in a flow and as long as the defense continues to come along they should be ready to go for the KoB next week.
