The Prosper Eagles Boys basketball team traveled to Denison on New Year’s Eve Day to take on the Yellow Jackets. The Eagles were attempting to get Coach Greg Nix his 200th career win as a high school basketball coach after falling short in the championship game of the Prosper Holiday Classic. The Eagles started slow and fell behind 14-7 at the end of the first quarter thanks to some sharp shooting from the Yellow Jackets. In the second quarter the Eagles defense led by Torii Hunter, Reid Randecker, Dakari Thurman and Cody West took over. 
The Prosper Eagles won the 1st Annual Lake Country Classic in Fort Worth Texas this past weekend. The Eagles opened the tournament on Thursday afternoon versus Christian Homeschool Athletes North Texas (CHANT.) The Eagles started quickly and never looked back. The Eagles used their half court press to create multiple turnovers and fast break points to beat CHANT and move into the winners bracket for a Friday evening match-up versus Dallas Sunset. The Eagles came out strong once again using their aggressive defensive play to create fast break points and open jump shots that stifled Dallas Sunset. Reid Randecker, Dakari Thurmon, Torii Hunter, and Cody West used their speed to create turnovers that fed Javelle Allen, Jay Bass, Will Toombs, and Ryan Cassidy in a 54-33 win. The win moved the Eagles into a semi-final game versus Garland Christian Academy.
