Behind stellar performances by Jai’lain Anderson and Jayshon Jones, Shelbyville Central’s Golden Eagles claimed a District 8-AAA win on the road by defeating Lawrence County 58-50 on Friday night.

Anderson and Jones each scored 19 points to lead the Eagles.

“This was a great win for our team. Our guys battled and played together,” Central coach Andrew Hicks said. “We’ve still got a long way to go before we reach our potential and where we want to be. It’s always nice to get a district win on the road.”

The Eagles led 19-10 after the first quarter, 28-18 at halftime and took a 42-29 lead into the fourth quarter.

Earman Garcia joined scoring in double figures for the winners with 11.
