The girls squad took part in the Annual Holiday Classic on Saturday, at the historic Western Bowl. The Lady Eagles placed 9th overall of 34 teams from Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky and Tennessee. Shelton guided the Eagles to the top-ten finish with a 171 average and a three game series of 513. Haines posted the high game for the Eagles (192), with a two game average of 191.
