After the week, Coach Scott Peluso said "We are fortunate to be in the Centennial League that has 3 of the top 5 teams in the state that we get to play twice.  The level of competition is very high, and we know what we need to perform at our best every night to compete.  We will keep improving and soon we will be at a place where we are not just competing at that level but upsetting some teams."
 
The Eagles have a busy week coming up as they play 3 away games and a tournament.  They are at Stargate on Monday, at Eaglecrest on Tuesday and play Littleton Public Schools at Heritage High School on Thursday.  On Saturday, the Valor Boys travel to Douglas County High School's tournament to play against some of the best teams in the state in a field that has 5 of the top ranked teams.
