The Franklin County Eagles hosted Heritage tonight in an early season
triple-a boys basketball tussle in Rocky Mount.

SUPER=03-Rocky Mount/Pioneers vs. Eagles;
The cold weather outside signals the beginning of the hoop season, but the
Eagle was trying to stay warm in the nest tonight.
Franklin County was anything but warm in the first quarter. Lewis Tardy
picks Travis Kent and finishes off the play with the easy layin.
The Eagles hung around though. Jeremy Adkins finds the range at the first
quarter horn to bring his team to within 5.
Then watch Kent take advantage of the matador 'D' as the Friday Football
Extra Player of the Week slices down the lane for the bucket.
But the Pioneers pull away. Seneca Luther finds Antron Smith who knocks
down the foul line jumper, and the SUPER=33-Heritage/=61/Franklin Co./=40;
visitors led by 14 at the half. They go on to win it 61 to 40.

Roy, who has been benched and unhappy all year long is part of a five player
deal that moves Roy and Mike Keane to to the Avalanche in exchange for goalie
Jocelyn Thibault and wingers Martin Rucinsky and Andrei Kovalenko.
The announcement was made today in Montreal.
Roy had fallen out of favor with some Montreal fans after blowing up on the
bench last Saturday night.
