The Clark State Eagles was 2-2 and had a lackluster night at home vs Wittenberg JV, falling 91-84.
After the loss, coach Alstork was upset at the level of play following Thanksgiving break. The worst part is that they would be headed on a tough road swing to start the OCAC season.
They would face Owens C.C. and Bryant-Stratton in a crucial early season road swing.
Against Owens Community College, the Eagles had possibly their best game of the season, as the execution and focus was at a all-time high after the loss.
They would jump on Owens C.C. early and often, and win going away 99-84 on Wednesday. Then last weekend they would face Bryant-Stratton, and produce another big win, sending them to 2-1 on the week, 4-3 on the season and 2-0 in the OCCAC.
The Eagles haven't been in 1st place this early in decades. The Eagles would celebrate after the Bryant - Stratton game as they understood that they are in 1st place, albeit its still early.
But this Clark State mens team is showing they are different.
See their celebration after big road win
"The team played exceptionally well in the last 2 games. They got after it all week after the tough loss. They were upset about that loss at home, and went and stood on business on both road games. This gives us a big boost as we move forward into the season.
Chris Herbort, Gio Roberts, Rynell Echols and Tyson Jones led the team this week."
Head coach Quinton Alstork said.
The Eagles will face Miami Middletown on the 6th (Wednesday) before facing Lorain C.C. in OCCAC play Saturday on the 9th (Home game - 1pm ET).
