Wednesday, 19 September 2012 17:34

The Eldorado Eagles claimed their first victory of the year as they defeated the Center Point Pirates 27-0 in front of a large Homecoming crowd on Friday, September 14, 2012.

It was a dominating effort on part of the Eagles offensive and defensive units.

The Warbirds gained  327 yards, 19 first downs  and four touchdowns. Meanwhile Eldorado’s stingy defense allowed the Pirates to gain a mere 105 yards and four first downs while holding them scoreless throughout the game.

The two teams appeared to be evenly matched as they  exchanged the ball and held each other out of the endzone in the opening quarter.
