BRODHEAD - Palmyra-Eagle finished 0-for-9 from the free throw line, but that's not why Brodhead won. The Cardinals held Palmyra-Eagle to just 19 points in the entire game, including seven in the second half to route its Rock Valley South counterpart 49-19 Friday.
J.J. Panoske led the way for the Cardinals with 16 points, 10 of which came in the third quarter. Nick Jacobson and Carson Scheidegger each scored 10 points as well for Brodhead.
The Cardinals actually trailed 10-9 after the first quarter, but an 11-2 run in the second put them up 20-12 at the break. In the second half Brodhead outscored Palmyra-Eagle 29-7.
Brodhead travels to Wisconsin Dells on Monday for a non-conference game.
