GDW Analysis:
A 4 game losing streak to conclude the December schedule has changed for Vinemont with 2 games in the record book for January, 2026:
Vinemont was very superior with Cullman Christian School, having 8 Eagles to score in the first period and lead 21 to 0.
Conquest was conquering the Lions with 5 FGs and had 10 points for coach James Brown by halftime.
The 2nd half scoring was led by Bush who had 9 and finished Monday evening with 14.
The 3rd was the most productive for the Eagles with 23 and a 63 to 10 cushion as Brown cleared his bench for plenty of playing time in the final stanza.
Now the Eagles deal with a pair of road games for the rest of the week in AHSAA 3A, Area 11.
Vinemont is at Locust Fork Tuesday and visit the Hanceville Bulldogs Friday evening.
