There were a few moments on Friday night when it looked as if Mexico’s winning ways might suffer a blow.
Throughout the second half in Eugene, the host Eagles threatened to close within 10 points. But each time one of head coach Ed Costley’s squad would repair the damage.
“We held on,” he said of the Bulldogs 56-43 road win, giving Mexico a 9-2 record heading into next week’s Macon Tournament.
Eugene’s Kaydi Alderman made it an 8-point game, 31-23, two minutes into the third quarter. With Mexico in foul trouble, guard Riley Blevins was forced to post up against the big Eagles forwards.
