“I used the loss on Tuesday night (to Hillcrest) to motivate them tonight and they came out hot as a pistol,” W.S. Neal Lady Eagle head coach John Saxon said. “We jumped out to a big lead and after reviewing the tape on them (J.U. Blacksher), I decided we needed to shutdown No. 21 and No. 24. We matched up with them and the girls just played their hearts out. I am very proud of them. I subbed tonight more than I usually do because I knew they were going to make a run at sometime or another. They made a good run and cut our lead to four points. I called timeout and we got refocused and made some defensive changes and the girls stepped up to the plate and just would not die. I am very proud of them.”
