If the Chesnee Eagles were feeling good off their 49-28 takedown of the Greer Middle College Blazers last Tuesday, their most recent game may have dampened their spirits a bit. Chesnee took a 47-35 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Red Devils on Friday. Chesnee was given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Red Devils apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in January.

Chesnee dropped their record down to 4-21 with that defeat, which was their seventh straight on the road.
