The Abilene High boys basketball team entered Friday night’s game with Wichita Falls Memorial knowing that they were already locked into a bi-district game with No. 13 Amarillo High and, with nothing on the line, wanted to ensure that its four seniors got a win in their home finale.
Those seniors (Tyson Thompson, Eric Salazar, Carter Wyatt and Connel Colley) all started for the Eagles and played key roles as AHS snapped a two-game losing skid with a 39-37 win over the Mavericks at Eagle Gym.
Wyatt led the group with 10 points on Friday night, after having not scored more than three points in a contest this season.
