CONYERS — Execution for all four quarters has been an issue at times this season for Salem, who entered their biggest Region 4-AAAA game to date Saturday afternoon at home against second-place Eastside.
After losing to the No. 5-ranked Eagles 72-57 in early December, a game they let slip away in the second half, it was apparent from the second quarter on Saturday that the rejuvenated Seminoles had no intentions of letting an early first-quarter lead slip away.
