EAGLES GO BACK TO BACK

COURTESY UNITED ATHLETICS

HANOVERTON OH- United has been on a rampage in the EOAC all season long. Most teams haven’t been able to get close, but no teams have been able to get on top. On Monday night the Eagles hosted Columbiana and had an opportunity to win their second consecutive EOAC championship. The team that not too long ago had 5 consecutive league championships in the old ITCL now started a new streak with a 49-40 win over Columbiana to get back to back titles.

Taylor Cope did hard work in the post and led the way with 14 points.  Sam Lippiatt was also in double figures with 10 points. Maddie Kibbler was a key component to the Eagles win with 7 points.  Grace Knight chipped in with 8 points.

United still wants to end the EOAC season undefeated and they’ll continue that goal on Thursday as they travel to East Palestine.  Columbiana returns back home and hosts Leetonia.
