The Screamin’ Eagles in action! The band intensified as the EMU Royals started to catch up behind the Bridgewater Eagles.

Up close and personal with the Eagles as they warm up, while the EMU Royals warm up on the other side of the court. The players intently focus on making each of their shots.

Junior number 15 Aaron Oates shoots for the free throw. The tension between the Royals and Eagles started to heat up as the crowd got louder.

Junior number 4 Landon Hawes goes in for the layup during warm ups. Bridgewater hosted one of their biggest rivals, Eastern Mennonite University, last Thursday.

Junior number 24 Will Dunlap eagerly passes the ball to senior number 21 Alec Topper. The EMU Royals started to tail behind the Eagles on the scoreboard.

Ward passes the ball to Oates to go into the hoop. Everyone watched closely to see what their next move was. The Eagles’ next game is scheduled for Feb. 7, at 7:30 p.m. at Eastern Mennonite University.
