The High Plains boys were prime for a trendy 5-12 upset given its success in recent weeks, but the higher seed BDS squad didn’t leave without a fight. 
The Eagles avoided the upset, taking an early lead and holding the Storm at bay late to defeat High Plains 53-40 Saturday in the opening round of the CRC tournament from the iconic York City Auditorium. 
The effort was high from the Storm early, but the Eagles were the ones scoring, taking a 9-2 lead in the first three minutes of the game.
