American's Stephen Lumpkins, who finished with a double-double of 10 points and 13 rebounds, helped the Eagles keep the Hawks from building much offensive momentum in the first half and throughout the night, as only forward Troy Snyder (13 points) was able to score more than seven points for the Hawks.
