Oakdale Eagles Defeat Rockwood – Will Play for District 4-1A Championship

By Terry Futrell

Unlike other Morgan County teams that are in District 3-1A, the Oakdale Eagles play in District 4-1A. The Eagles were seeded third for the district tournament behind Harriman and Rockwood. Being the underdog in their semifinal match with the Rockwood Tigers did not deter the Eagles, who had recently defeated the Tigers on February 8. Continuing where they left off, Oakdale soundly defeated Rockwood 62-49 in their district semifinal match Friday evening. Oakdale will now face Harriman for the championship Tuesday evening at Greenback.

For the first time in four years, the Oakdale Eagles will be playing for the district championship. [File photo by Terry Futrell]
