Good win over Spire last night at the Nest. This was not the same Spire that came to Lakewood a few years ago with Lamelo Ball and Rocket Watts. They listed about 15 kids on the printed roster, but only brought 9 and dressed 8. Not sure where the rest of the team was... maybe they thought they didn't need em all? From my memory, they brought the following kids (Hill didn't Dress) + 6'9 Abdou Yadd who started but wasn't on the print out. None of these guys appear to be major DI recuits as of now (Big 10, ACC, etc), but most did appear to be DI type kids. Eagles got out fast and blasted them in Q1, leading 28-9 after 1. Q2 was much more competitive, with the Eagles going into half up 22 I believe. Spire came out in a zone that gave the Eagles trouble in the second half, and allowed Spire to do less running around on D. At one point late in 3rd, Spire cut it to 9, but that was as close as they got. Ukize Nshungu left in the first half with a very painful looking arm/shoulder injury. Hopefully nothing serious. He's been a key reserve for the Eagles.
