The Canton Eaglette JV Green team enters the Christmas holiday after a nearly perfect run through 2016, posting a 15-1 record through their first 16 games. 

The Canton girls JV Green team went on the road Dec. 13 and fought through a tough and talented Ennis team, 53-35. The contest went to Ennis early but the Eaglettes closed the gap to two points by halftime. The second half the girls rallied together and found a way to win.

Coach Glenn Neal stated, “The girls shared the ball and played team defense and competed like the Eaglettes of the past. The team continues to learn to play team ball, and play with confidence.”

The Eaglettes were scheduled to play Saltillo Dec. 16, but eventually cancelled due to a conflict with holiday activities for Saltillo.

The Green team, currently 15-1 on the season, will return to the court following the Christmas break.
