Eagles look to rebound, travel to Drew
Eastside's epic battle with Sandy Creek Saturday will go down as one of the toughest losses in school history. That the eagles came to within a minute and a 76-yard touchdown pass away from knocking off the top team in the state – a feat not done in 34 games now, is of little consolation. Especially with work left to do.

I'm sure down in Tyrone, the euphoria still hasn't worn off.
