As the game progressed their was excellent defending from Craig Campbell and Marc McKinnie. At the other end, Stuart Faulds controlled the play, Dylan Jenks did some excellent work taking numerous rebounds. In the end, Eastwood’s top scorer proved to much to handle, with successive 3-pointers late in the game. Eastwood High ran out eventual winners after a thoroughly entertaining game.
