Home away from home. The Lambuth Eagles are 3-0 at home this year and 4-0 on the Bethel court in McKenzie. As a matter of fact Coach Kevin Burton has never lost on that court. The Eagles beat Bethel in the 9th Annual McDonalds Classic 84-71 Saturday night.
Lambuth's Antwan Long was named to the all-tournament squad as he led the Eagles to their ninth win of the season. Long led the Eagles with 20 points, nine rebounds and four assists. Xavier " The Price is Right" Price added 18 points and eight boards. Lambuth shot a season low 38% from the floor but hit 31-of-47 free throws to gain the victory.
The Eagles improved to 9-2 on the year.
Lambuth will not be back in action until January 6 when they host Temple Baptist.
Coach Kevin Burton and the Eagles wish all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
