Pella High Loses Goon Game To Eddyville

In the fastest game of the year Pella High fell 28 20 to Eddyville on Wednesday evening. Eddyville led 16 7 at halftime, then Pella rallied briefly before Eddyville regained the lead and held it. Andy Butts hit key long shots in the second half while Hoover’s sharp foul shooting aided Pella’s late push. The Eddyville five are among the region’s strongest. Pella is praised for holding them to a low score and for spirited play.
