1/3/20: Eastern @ Waverly

[Seneca]

Big League matchup for both schools. Coach Lockery has the Eagles playing well.

[Ironman92]

Coach Lockery has done an excellent job. I don’t think they can beat Waverly though.

Waverly 58
Eastern 46

Is Robertson gonna be healed up? If he’s at 100% I got Waverly by 10

If not I got Cochenour for 35

[3sUp]

I can’t see Eastern being able to stop Waverly’s bigs. They didn’t have much size if I remember correctly

[beaverlover]

Hope I'm wrong but just Think Tigers are a year ahead of the Eagles(if that makes sense) and will protect home court. Waverly by 8

Size is Indeed not a strength of the Eagles,Chase Carter does play big and is aggressive for his first year of varsity..but then it's mostly guard play.

It’s unlikely he’ll be healed up short of several weeks of rest to allow it to heal.

PLAYER OF THE GAME - ZEKE BROWN
Not only did Zeke lead all scorers with 18 points he had the job of guarding and shutting down Cochenour. Cochenour scores his first points of the game on a 3 with .40 to play in the third and Zeke had went out for a breather.
Brown re-entered the start of the 4th and held Cochenour to one bucket and that was with 1:16 to play.

About as expected but with more points

I didn’t expect Cochenhour to have 5 and Robertson 7. Great job by Zeke defensively on Cochenhour. Zeke is becoming a lock down defender who can guard the opposing teams best player. Waverly gets stully back soon and is rounding into form. Bigs are playing well.

No doubt Zeke did a great job on Cochenhour. Did he just deny him from getting the ball, or was he getting his normal amount of shots and they were just not falling.

Radio said Cochenhour was sick heading into this game so they weren't expecting him to have his normal game.

[Ukfanatic]

Yes I talked to coach lockery at peebles Saturday and he said he didn't even think cochenhour was going to be able to play he was so sick.
