GRAND RAPIDS — The Oakridge Eagles’ boys basketball team simply ran out of gas on Friday night.
 
After playing at Newaygo on Thursday, the Eagles ventured over to Grand Rapids to take on Covenant Christian. After a tight first half, the Chargers surged to an 86-49 victory over the Eagles.
 
Covenant led 36-33 at the half, then scored 50 points in the second half to run away with the victory. A couple defensive changes by the Chargers in the second half paid dividends after halftime.
 
Peyton Ruel led Oakridge with 16 points. Brody Jennings and Matt Danicek each scored six points. Danicek and Evan Jozsa had seven rebounds each.
 
Oakridge (4-8, 2-4) hosts North Muskegon on Monday.
