GREENVILLE, SC - After a losing a heartbreaker on Tuesday night the Chesnee basketball team rebounded on Friday using a strong fourth quarter defense to grab a 66-49 victory over Brashier Middle College and picking up their first region win of the year.
"It was a good team win tonight," said Chesnee head coach Andy Pitt. "We took care of the ball, shot it well, and really did a nice job on the boards. It was nice to have all our guys available tonight as it's the first time in a while we've had everyone there and healthy." The Eagles took an early 16-10 lead at the end of the first quarter and were led by a strong first quarter from Brady Poole who scored 10 of the team's points in the quarter.

In the third quarter the Eagles held a slim 47-44 lead thanks to some key play from Ty'Quan Dawkins who combined to score 11 points over the second and third quarters. The final quarter of play saw the Eagles play probably their best overall quarter of the season as they outscored the Bengals 19-5 to come away with the victory. Coyie Poole had a strong quarter for the Eagles as he recorded eight of his 14 points in the fourth quarter.
