CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — The Veterans Memorial Eagles boys proved they're the team to beat in District 29-5A after a dominating 82-47 win over Ray Friday.
The Texans (6-2) entered the night trailing the Eagles (8-0) by just a game in the standings, making the match-up a first place showdown. But Veterans Memorial quickly jumped out to a 15-2 lead to begin the game. Ray didn't immediately let the game get away though as the Texans went on a 10-2 run to end the quarter and pull within 17-12.
From the second quarter on it was all Eagles as Veterans Memorial pulled away in both the game and the standings. Vets now has at least a two game advantage over every team in the district.
