The Eagles were in charge from the start, leading 6-2 at the end of the first quarter, and 24-4 at the half. They basically held that roughly 20-point advantage throughout the second half.
The Griffins, however, never quit, and though outplayed, maintained a high level of intensity to the end. A highlight for the losing team came in the fourth quarter when an Eagle player appeared headed for the basket for an easy fastbreak lay-up when suddenly little pint-sized sixth grader Daniel Hanley came flying out of nowhere and snuffed the shot without commtting a foul.
Cesar Flores led the Eagl attack with 17 points. Damon Janzen had eight, and Haziel Martinez five (including a three-pointer). Luis Doin and Josiah Canaviri has four points each.
For International Claudio Santos and Alejandro Santos both had eight points.

Little Knights conquer Jaguars. 37-11

The Cambridge boys junior varsity sailed to an easy win over Cooperative, 37-11, Tuesday in the Jaguar gym.
The Junior Knights led 16-2 at the half. They were led once again by Jose Rivera, who scored 27 points even though he seemed to be having an off day, missing several short shots near the beginning of the game. He had averaged 32 points in his two earlier games.
Alonso Tercero added six points for the Knights, Esteve Roca had two, while Dagnoni Meneses and Diego Bejar had one point each.
Eduardo Ribera had seven points for the Jaguars. Luis Simon and Fernando Antelo had two points each.
