Eastern has gone a perfect 3-0 against Shawnee recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Monday. It'll be a Battle of the Birds when the Eagles duke it out with the Golden Eagles at 7:30 p.m. Eastern knows how to get points on the board -- the team has finished with 55 points or more in their past four matches -- so hopefully Shawnee likes a good challenge.
Last Friday, Eastern was within striking distance but couldn't close the gap as they fell 76-70 to Ballard. Despite running the score up even higher than they did in their prior game on Wednesday (56), the Eagles still had to take the loss.
Meanwhile, it's never fun to lose, and it's even less fun to lose 80-49, which was the final score in Shawnee's tilt against DuPont Manual on Friday.
