At Mattoon

Effingham traveled to Mattoon for a seventh-grade B game and fell 17-6. The Mustangs won the eighth-grade B game 51-9.

"Our shooting was as cold as the weather outside," said EJHS Coach Mike Walker. "We went three for 24 from the field. Our effort on defense was outstanding but not enough to earn a victory."

Effingham is now 1-1 on the season and returns to action Monday hosting Dieterich. The contest was originally scheduled to be played at Dieterich but due a scheduling conflict, the game has been moved to Effingham with a 6 p.m. start.

In eighth-grade play, the Mustangs took a 27-4 halftime lead and never looked back to improve to 1-0. Vasquez and Devore tallied 13 points each while Morrissey added 11.
