Eagles hang on to win 7th straight

The Eastern Eagles escaped Worthington Arena with their win streak still intact thanks to Marc Axton's three pointer that gave the Eagles the lead for good with 40 seconds left. Check out the S-R's article of the game.

For another take on the game, here is the Bozeman Daily Chronicle's article
by Tony Castleberry.

The Eagles now travel to Missoula to take on the Grizzlies, the only team to defeat the Eagles in Big Sky play this season. As Bob Meseroll of the Missoulian writes, the Grizzlies now have sole possession of last place thanks to Thursday's loss to Portland State.

Eastern looks to sweep the Montana road trip for the second straight season.
The Eagles beat the Griz 72-62 last year in Missoula thanks to 17 points
from Marc Axton. The game is at 6:35 local time and 7:35 mountain time.
