On the volleyball court, the No. 5-ranked Lady Knights were on the verge of securing the District 7-4A title Tuesday. All Eagle Mountain needed was a home win over Lake Worth to clinch the championship, which would make Friday’s regular-season finale at Decatur meaningless.

In cross country, the Eagle Mountain girls competed Tuesday in the Class 4A Region I meet at Mae Simmons Park in Lubbock.
