Earlier in the week Indiana University Southeast thumped the Eagles 82-28. Maple led the team with eight points and seven rebounds. The Eagles will play in the Asbury College Tournament Friday night at 8 p.m. There will also be games on Saturday at 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. Following the tournament, the Eagles will have Christmas break to recuperate from their barrage of injuries until Jan. 7 when they pick up play again at Berea College.
Many people have traditions when it comes to ringing in the new year.
The Asbury College men's basketball team is no different. 1999 will mark the third year in a row for the Eagles to hit the road during Christmas break to hoop it up with teams from across the country. This year the team will travel to Florida. The Eagles will stop in Lakeland, Fla. where they'll face Valley Forge and Southeastern College. Next, the team will head to Lake Wales, Fla. to play Warner Southern College.
