Eagle Fans,
Volleyball is now 2-0 in District play and have a big week. We will play Mexia on Tuesday (here) and Madisonville (here) on Friday. Our girls did a great job of handling Rusk last Friday. Our jr. High 7a/8a won the Leon volleyball tournament this weekend and will play Palestine (there) Monday.
Our Cross Country teams went to Round Rock and competed this past weekend. This was our last meet before the district meet. We have a week off and then run on October 9th here for district. The Varsity girls will run at 10am. The Varsity boys will run around 10:30am with the JV teams following. The jr. High teams will start running the district cross country meet on October 9th at 3:45pm. Come watch our kiddos compete.
The Football teams started district play against Lorena. We turned the ball over to many times and had some mistakes that Lorena took advantage of in a 41-13 loss in Lorena on Friday night.
The good thing is that we get the opportunity to play again this week against a Madisonville team that defeated Mexia last Friday. This will be our Pink Out game. So wear your pink to the Volleyball game at 4:30pm and come over to the football field and watch our guys against the Madisonville Mustangs.
Come support our Eagles and Lady Eagles!
