Coach Wease was pleased to see the bottom half of the lineup have a great night, "most of the time we expect the top part of the order to give us production, and it's an added bonus when we get production from the bottom. When we get that kind of production from the bottom it definitely gives us a chance to win" The Eagles will return to action Thursday at Home against St Josephs.
