The Eagles were slated to get back to WCAC action this week and take on St. John's on Tuesday, January 29, but the game was postponed due to inclement weather.  The weather did not, however, stop the team from travelling to Good Counsel on Thursday, January 31 to take a 87-49 win over the Falcons.  Here are some great photos of the victory:
